Community structure
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-002289
The organization and composition of a biological community, including the number of species present, their relative abundances, and their spatial arrangement. This encompasses aspects such as species richness, species diversity, and the trophic levels within the community. Factors like habitat complexity, resource availability, and interspecies interactions influence community structure.
