Scaling species interactions: implications for community ecology and biological scaling theory by Douglas S. Glazier

“…Conclusion: The major findings of this review provide further foundation for a “mortality theory of ecology” and a comprehensive theory of allometry that embraces both internal physical and external ecological factors, both currently under development. Body-size scaling of biotic interactions has not only important implications for the development of synthetic theory bridging community ecology and biological scaling, but also practical applications for understanding the effects of human exploitation and climate change on living systems.…”
