This chapter examines the computational analysis of food webs, focusing on the intricate relationships within ecosystems. It emphasizes the importance of body size and niche modeling in understanding ecological interactions and comparing diverse environments, revealing consistent structural patterns across varying habitats.
In this episode, we continue our conversation with Professor Jennifer Dunne, the Vice President for Science at the Santa Fe Institute.
In this episode, Jennifer discusses her work to understand ‘human-centred interaction networks’ - how humans interact with non-human species in a range of ways, including for food - by examining Indigenous cultures around the world and historical migration to Polynesian islands.
