the earth’s life-support system

A system made up of a community of animals, plants and microorganisms interrelated together with its physical and chemical environment

Chapter 19

Great Idea:Ecosystems are ecological systems, interdependent

communities of living things that recycle matter while energy flows through in a given area, their physical

surroundings (environments).

ECO-SYSTEM

SYSTEM - ECOLOGY System - interaction (living & non-living) System - interconnection System - networking System - symbiosis System - nature

Ecology

Science of Natural living systems

Ecosystems

Biotic and abiotic interaction, interconnection systems

Community

Producers, consumers, decomposers

Every Ecosystem consists of both living and nonliving parts

Energy flows through ecosystems

Matter is recycled by ecosystems

Every organism occupies an ecological niche

Stable ecosystems achieve a balance among their populations

Ecosystems are dynamic, not permanent, but change over time

Abiotic

Chemical and physical environment

Biotic

Living organisms

Ecological community

All in area interacting each other

Food Web Interactions of organisms

Trophic Levels Photosynthetic plants

Herbivores

Carnivores

Decomposers

Most energy is lost as heat 10% is transferred

Most energy in most ecosystems is stored in the bodies of primary producers. Only about 10 percent of the energy at one energy level passes to the next highest trophic level.

Atoms continuously cycle

Ecological niche

Mode of survival

Each plant/animal fills a niche

Organisms compete for dominance

Homeostasis

Balance among populations

Resources are limited

Some variation in population sizes

Overall relatively constant distribution

It is virtually impossible to change on aspect of a complex system without affecting other parts of the systems, often in as-yet unpredictable ways.

Examples:

Everglades Restoration in Florida

Lake Victoria in Africa

Lake Victoria Largest freshwater lake in Africa

Introduced species Nile perch (Ikan duri) Aggressive predator

Algae blooms

Snail populations carry disease

Roasting fish Decimated (Membunuh) forests

Increase in erosion

Invasive species attacking Lake VictoriaAfrica

These images show water hyacinth infestation and control of such invasive species

• 2001: A visible reduction of water hyacinth on Lake Victoria

gas

Burning fossil fuels increases CO2

Average global temperature has significantly increased 1990s warmest decade

Measurements in 1958 read 316 ppm and increased to 370 ppm today

Solar energy output Varies over time

Impact Warming of Northern Hemisphere Ecological impacts Meteorological impacts

Solutions Kyoto accord

Understanding shoreline movement allows us to avoid avoid settlement in vulnerable locations (SOPAC, 2007).
