Size Spectrum Models

Size Spectrum Models is a mathematical modeling framework in marine ecology that describes the distribution and dynamics of organism abundance and biomass across body size classes within an ecosystem, distinguished by its emphasis on size-dependent processes such as growth, predation, and mortality rather than species-centric population dynamics.
