Ecopath model

Model Name: Antarctica, Eastern Weddell Sea
Year: 1997
Remarks: Collaborative research in the Weddell Sea performed during the past decade has substantially increased insight into the different community components of this large ecosystem, and has led to a conceptual diagram of the biomass flows among its principal subsytems. In order to integrate the results of the various research efforts directed towards the shelf communities into a coherent whole, a static modelling approach was used to obtain the first balanced model of trophic flows between the dominant groups of the benthic community of the eastern Weddell Sea.
