Presenting a Regional Competitiveness Model based on the Knowledge-Based entrepreneurial ecosystem Structure
In today's age where knowledge is a driving force at regional and country level, the role of entrepreneurial ecosystems that foster the innovative and knowledge based entrepreneurial activities is very crucial in terms of competitiveness of resource attraction and wealth creation. Now the question arises: what is the model of regional competitiveness based on the knowledge entrepreneurship ecos...
متن کاملResearch Article: Trophic dynamics analysis and ecosystem structure for some fish species of northern Oman Sea
In the present study, a trophic structure model for some fish species of the northern Oman Sea is developed through using mass balance modeling software, Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE). In this model, we simulated 16 functional groups spread across an area of 3998.20 km2 from 2017 to 2018. Mean trophic level in the area of the present study was 3.49. Values calculated for system omnivory and connect...
متن کاملComparison of ecosystem modelling and isotopic approach as ecological tools to 2 investigate food webs in the NW Mediterranean Sea 3 4
23 24 Understanding how marine ecosystems are structured and how they function is a 25 scientific challenge. Nowadays, to learn about ecosystem trophic dynamics ecologists use 26 two complementary methodological approximations, mass-balance ecosystem models and 27 isotopic tools. However, despite the wide applications of these methodologies, the 28 comparison and combination of both are still s...
متن کاملCascading extinctions, functional complementarity, and selection in two-trophic-level model communities: a trait-based mechanistic approach.
The influence of diversity on ecosystem functioning and ecosystem services is now well established. Yet predictive mechanistic models that link species traits and community-level processes remain scarce, particularly for multitrophic systems. Here we revisit MacArthur's classical consumer resource model and develop a trait-based approach to predict the effects of consumer diversity on cascading...
متن کاملEffects of hunting, fishing and climate change on the Hudson Bay marine ecosystem: I. Re-creating past changes 1970–2009
An ecosystem model was created for the Hudson Bay region, Canada, for 1970–2009, aiming to identify ecosystem linkages while bringing together research from diverse sources. The model presented here in detail includes 40 functional groups. Using the Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) modelling framework we are able to provide estimates for previously unknown parameters such as the biomass of fish specie...
