Figure 1

Diagram of state variables and flows in a model of a soft sediment ecosystem. Thick line arrows are trophic carbon flows; thin line arrows are information flows indicating the influence of the state of a variable on a process, the + and - indicate the direction of the influence; arrows of intermediate line thickness are flows of carbon and sulfide. A detailed description of the model can be found in Duplisea.[16]
