Explore size spectra analysis and its applications in stream ecology in this 25-minute lecture. Gain insights into trophic pyramids, energy exchanges, and the use of curved and straight lines in modeling. Learn how to measure and log abundance, understand violations, and utilize the SCI inspector. Delve into the complexity of streams while examining the paper by Blanchard et al. (2017) on functional size spectra in marine ecosystems. Enhance your understanding of stream ecology through this comprehensive overview of size spectra analysis techniques.
