Emergent Global Patterns of Ecosystem Structure and Function from a Mechanistic General Ecosystem Model

The pace and scale of anthropogenic environmental change has caused the widespread degradation of ecosystems and the services they provide that ultimately support human life on Earth. Understanding and mitigating these impacts necessitates the development of a suite of tools, including policy in...

short_description This paper presents the first example of a General Ecosystem Model (GEM)—called the Madingley Model—a novel class of computational model that can be applied to any ecosystem, marine or terrestrial, and can be simulated at any spatial scale from local up to global.
