Monitoring of trophic chains.
In the paper simple trophic chains of the type resource-producer-primary consumer are considered. For an analysis of the dynamic state monitoring of this system, the concept of observability of mathematical systems theory is proposed. Using a linearization method of non-linear observation systems, biologically interpretable sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee local observability. The latter means that based on the dynamic observation of a single component, the state of the whole system can be uniquely recovered, at least near a positive equilibrium.
