groups.level

This dataset contains the matrix describing trophic interactions between trophic groups of a soil food-web (Digel et al. 2014, Oikos)
as well as some ecological information on these groups: biomasses, body masses and and species composition.

Compute energy fluxes in trophic networks, from resources to their consumers, and can be applied to systems ranging from simple two-species interactions to highly complex food webs. It implements the approach described in Gauzens et al. (2017) <doi:10.1101/229450> to calculate energy fluxes, which are also used to calculate equilibrium stability.
