Andres2016

The community contains 21 nodes in bacterial, fungal, and root energy channels.

datasets

Analyzing soil food webs or any food web measured at equilibrium. The package
calculates carbon and nitrogen fluxes and stability properties using methods
described by Hunt et al. (1987) <doi:10.1007/BF00260580>, de Ruiter et al.
(1995) <doi:10.1126/science.269.5228.1257>, Holtkamp et al. (2011)
<doi:10.1016/j.soilbio.2010.10.004>, and Buchkowski and Lindo (2021)
<doi:10.1111/1365-2435.13706>. The package can also manipulate the structure
of the food web as well as simulate food webs away from equilibrium and run
decomposition experiments.
