Description:
In the context of this paper, a Monod system model is a set of ordinary differential equations in which the terms resemble those which Motion presented in his 1949 paper. Attention is directed to the multiple trophic level case in which each trophic level exploits only one of the trophic levels for its perpetuation, and no two trophic entities exploit the same trophic level (cascaded). The treatment expands from a primary producer progressively through five trophic levels. Types of stability are identified and are related to persistence, and the consequences of some intuitive scaling structures are developed. These considerations are relevant to some theoretical questions in ecology and to applications such as bioreactor operation.
