- Scaling in Ecology with a Model System synthesizes central theories from ecology, biogeography, and macroecology through the lens of scale and scaling across spatiotemporal extents and grains, levels of biological organization, and with dimensionless ratios. In this book, we link 25 years of detailed natural history observations and laboratory and field experiments on the “Sarracenia microecosystem” (the northern pitcher plant, Sarracenia purpurea, and its associated food web of microbes and macrobes) with new models and analyses to generate novel insights into ecophysiology and stoichiometry; demography and species distribution models; food webs and trophic dynamics; and tipping points and regime shifts.
