- Pyramid of biomass
- Secondary production
- Gross primary productivity (GPP) - measured in g m-2 year-1
- Net primary productivity (NPP)
- NPP= GPP - R

- Carbon Sink
- How is energy lost between trophic levels in ecosytems
- In plants
- 1-3% of light use for energy
- 90% is reflection
- Incorrect wavelength
- Transmission of light right through
- Used as heat power
- In animals
- Heat loss
- Respiration
- Faeces
- In plants
