Talk:Food web/Section headers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm trying to think of the most important headings and would accept some input and ideas in this direction. I'm thinking of the following:

  • Trophic cascades
  • Models (see here)
    • Stability and complexity
    • Topology
      • Assembly rules
      • Extinction debt
    • Cycles and density (note: this is not biogeochemical cycles, but cycles as in cycles and loops in topology)
      • Predator prey systems
  • Applications
    • Conservation
    • Climate change
    • Ecotoxicology
    • Ecosystem management
    • Ecosystem services

Sub-headings under kinds of food webs:

  • Parasites
  • Grazers
  • Omnivores
  • Marine
  • Aquatic or Freshwater
  • Terrestrial
  • Dessert
  • Polar
  • Microcosm or bacterial or
  • Microbial
    • Viruses
    • Achaea
    • Bacteria

The list looks long - but each could be less than a paragraph and formatted as the article takes form.Thompsma (talk) 02:25, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
