Ecological energetics is the quantitative study of the flow of energy through ecological systems. It aims to uncover the principles which describe the propensity of such energy flows through the trophic, or energy availing levels of ecological networks. In systems ecology the principles of ecosystem energy flows or ecosystem laws i.e. principles of ecological energetics are considered formally analogous to the principles of energetics . History Ecological energetics appears to have grown out of the Age of enlightenment and the concerns of the physiocrats . It began in the works of Podolinksy in the late 1800s, and subsequently was developed by the Soviet ecologist Stanchinskii, the Austro American Lotka , and American limnologists, Lindeman and Hutchenson. It underwent substantial development by H.T.Odum and was applied by systems ecology systems ecologists , and radiation ecologists .

Orphan date February 2009 Unreferenced date August 2008 A plastic igniter cord PIC is a type of fuse used to initiate an explosive device or charge. In appearance igniter cord is similar to safety fuse and when ignited, an intense flame spits perpendicular to the cord at a uniform rate as it burns along its length. Igniter cord in construction is again similar to safety fuse, consisting of a pyrotechnic composition at the core, wrapped with a nylon sheath to provide shape and finally wrapped again in an outer plastic shell to provide water resistance. Normally, igniter cord also consists of a metal wire at the very center of the pyrotechnic core which also runs the entire length of the cord the pyrotechnic composition will react with the metal wire typically aluminum, iron or copper to increase the energetics of the fuse. There are two types of PICs the fast type which has nominal burning speed of 30 cm per second, a diameter of about 3 mm, and is brownish in color and the slow type, which has a diameter of 2 mm, is greenish in color, and has a nominal burning speed of 3 cm per second.

Orphan date February 2009 No footnotes date April 2009 Near equilibrium Enzymatic Flux Transfer Networks are intra cellular mechanisms for moving Adenosine triphosphate ATP and a wide range of other metabolite s around the cell biology cell from where they are produced to where they are needed, at a rate faster than simple diffusion through the cell s cytoplasm would be able to manage. They can act as a buffer system, as there are linear arrays of pathways with several intermediates in the chain, making the supply of metabolites more reliable. A set of parallel shuttles is also less sensitive to disruption than a single shuttle would be. This allows for automatic coupling between supply and demand, and they can almost instantly supply of a ligand to parts of cells that require it. Hence the concentrations of enzymes in the cell is very large, instead of the concentration of metabolites solutes in the cell being large, which helps osmosis osmotic homeostasis , and means transport of metabolites is not dependent on wastefully large concentration gradient s. This means that they are less costly in terms of energy used.
