Abstract:

The energy transfer model in a stable food-web is established by applying algebra and graph theory. The stability of ecosystem is studied by using the established model when some food chains break off. The method of establishing model is favourable to monitor energy transfer problems of food web in ecological system, and helps people to do further quantitative study about energy relationship between biotic populations.

Keywords:

Food-web, stability, energy transfer, breaking off
