wikt ascendency Distinguish Ascendancy Ascendency is a quantitative attribute of an ecosystem , defined as a function of the ecosystem s trophic network . Ascendency is derived using mathematical tools from information theory . It is intended to capture in a single index the ability of an ecosystem to prevail against disturbance by virtue of its combined organization and size. One way of depicting ascendency is to regard it as organized power , because the index represents the magnitude of the power that is flowing within the system towards particular ends, as distinct from power that is dissipated willy nilly. Almost half a century earlier, Alfred J. Lotka 1922 had suggested that a system s capacity to prevail in evolution was related to its ability to capture useful power. Ascendency can thus be regarded as a refinement of Lotka s supposition that also takes into account how power is actually being channeled within a system. In mathematical terms, ascendency is the product of the aggregate amount of material or energy being transferred in an ecosystem times the coherency with which the outputs from the members of the system relate to the set of inputs to the same components Robert Ulanowicz Ulanowicz 1986 . Coherence is gauged by the average mutual information shared between inputs and outputs Rutledge et al. 1976 . Originally, it was thought that ecosystems increase uniformly in ascendency as they developed, but subsequent empirical observation has suggested that all sustainable ecosystems are confined to a narrow window of vitality Ulanowicz 2002 . Systems with relative values of ascendency plotting below the window tend to fall apart due to lack of significant internal constraints, whereas systems above the window tend to be so brittle that they become vulnerable to external perturbations. Sensitivity analysis on the components of the ascendency reveals the controlling ... . That is, ascendency can be used to identify which resource is limiting the functioning of each component ... more details
