Some random thoughts on the statistical analysis of food-web data
This chapter focuses on the formal statistical analysis of community food webs. Among the issues covered are testing for hypothesized regularities (e.g., constant connectance) in a collection of food webs and fitting and testing parametric models (e.g., the cascade model). The analysis of partially observed food webs is also covered.
Keywords: community ecology, food webs dynamics, parametric models, cascade models
