摘要：

Ecosystems can be viewed from various perspectives depending on the quantity cycled: carbon, nitrogen, potassium, etc. Using real data, it will be shown that each kind of material has its own characteristic type of organization within ecosystems in terms of a proposed information index. Nutrient systems are generally more highly organized than carbon or energy systems on the basis of information theoretical considerations. © 1993 Academic Press. All rights reserved.
