This chapter frames plankton communities as biological complex systems that can be represented through networks of interacting elements. It discusses how diversity, interactions and system states co-vary over time under internal dynamics and external forcing, producing nonlinear behavior. By applying network concepts to plankton ecology, the chapter examines how interaction structure can help characterize the complexity, diversity and dynamics of marine plankton systems.

Abstract
This chapter frames plankton communities as biological complex systems that can be represented through networks of interacting elements. It discusses how diversity, interactions and system states co-vary over time under internal dynamics and external forcing, producing nonlinear behavior. By applying network concepts to plankton ecology, the chapter examines how interaction structure can help characterize the complexity, diversity and dynamics of marine plankton systems.File in questo prodotto:
