Systems ecology for instance provides a formal theory of morphological change 20. A hierarchical random graph is a succinct recipe for generating
These include a metabolic network, a grassland ecology, and a social network of terrorists. Key attributes of the network include average degree k, average clustering coefficient (C),
Like the network ecology this sampled network has a relatively low degree. However, the complete Wikipedia content network probably has a much higher degree perhaps a degree as high as 10.
The network is therefore similar to the grasslands ecology network which has previously been shown to be disassortative 21.4.2.
Risk assessment and risk management concepts can refer e g. to risk assessment related to health risk, toxicology, ecology, food safety or industrial use 12,

but in human societies it has perceptual and physical components infecting matters relating to society, science and technology, economics, ecology, politics and value/norms:
Some features may be the inclusion of the principles of industrial ecology and its near relative ecological economics.
The parallel emergence of the notions of industrial ecology in 1973 when Evan 40 defined industrial ecology asa systematic analysis of industrial operations including factors like:
for in them the resolution of all arising contradictions is the motive force of progress (Wikipedia'sHistory of Industrial Ecology')Industrial ecology was later popularised by Frosch and Gallopoulos 42.
The marriage of the principles of industrial ecology and those of ecological economics, and its influence on globalisation, glocalisation and governance,
By engaging actively in shaping the move from the current paradigm ofgrowth'economics to that of ecological economics and industrial ecology
