Events in MathSys and Complexity Science
This is a calendar page detailing events within the MathSys CDT. It also acts as a booking diary for the Seminar Room D1.07. To book D1.07 please email Sheetal.Sharma@warwick.ac.uk
Please note that your event booking is for D1.07 only. The adjacent common room is a private area for the MathSys Centre that cannot used as part of your booking.
MathSys CDT events have priority for D1.07 room bookings.

Metabolic constraints on complex ecosystems
Scores of competitive, mutualistic, and consumer-resource interactions between organisms underlie every ecosystem. Altogether, these interactions form large, complex networks that show interesting and sometimes unpredictable ecosystem dynamics. Can we ever hope to achieve a level of understanding that will allow us to predict how and when these complex systems arise/assemble, and persist under external perturbations? I will talk about how quantifying species interactions using metabolic theory for individual organisms offers a way, and yields novel and empirically-relevant predictions about ecosystem assembly and stability under environmental fluctuations.
