Exploring drivers of ecosystem variability
• Drivers considered during model fitting: i) Internal forcing: trophic flow controlsii) External forcing: fishing and the environment.
• Fishing carefully managed in the southern Benguela (previous studies shown most resource variability attributed to internal forcing and environmental forcing)
• Fishing shown to have played relatively major role in driving ecosystem changes observed in the southern Humboldt
• 2 hypotheses tested:i) Upwelling ecosystems function as wasp-waist systemsii) Although completely different environmental drivers act in the two ecosystems, the processes whereby these effects are transferred through the ecosystems and manifest themselves as ecosystem changes and observed resource dynamics, are essentially similar

Model investigations
• Compare 25 interactions for which the model is most sensitive in terms of Vs
• Find “best” required forcing function acting on PP, which improves model fits
• Explore additional FFs applied to specific interaction(s)
• Compare the FF applied to PP and/or specific interactions with existing environmental time series

Comparing drivers
• Southern Benguela and southern Humboldt upwelling systems are wasp-waisted in terms of flow control
• Fishing: much more important driver of ecosystem changes in SH than in SB (10-13% of variability explained by fishing in Benguela versus 28% in Humboldt)
• Trophic parameters (Vs) explain more variability than the anomaly on PP, suggesting effects of environmental forcing or bottom-up changes will depend on the internal functioning of the food web in terms of vulnerability of groups to predation
![Page 17: Comparing internal and external drivers in the …doga.ogs.trieste.it/doga/echo/ecem07/workshop/08_ECEM07...Comparing internal and external drivers in the southern Benguela and southern](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022041008/5eb264b122c6405d8957beed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Conclusions:Environmental forcing
• S. Humboldt:Environment forces anchovy and common sardine in same way, affecting their consumption of zooplankton and their consumption by predators; Enviro-driven variability in PP also important
• S. Benguela:Sardine and anchovy forced by opposite environmental drivers / react in opposite ways to the same environmental driver)Environment affects recruitment, effects then propagated up and down from the wasp-waist
![Page 18: Comparing internal and external drivers in the …doga.ogs.trieste.it/doga/echo/ecem07/workshop/08_ECEM07...Comparing internal and external drivers in the southern Benguela and southern](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022041008/5eb264b122c6405d8957beed/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Final comments• Models as exploratory tools to get at underlying
mechanisms• Anchovy-sardine interactions with zooplankton
and predators - critical in driving changes in both systems, although the mechanisms differ
• S. Benguela: environmental data series to be combined into forcing functions as index of mechanisms determining the way an ecosystem functions –
“environmental suitability indices”
