New insight: ecosystem function.

New insight: ecosystem function.
http://5bio5.blogspot.com/2013/06/new-insight-ecosystem-function.html

The traditional view: The main ecosystem function is the functioning of the trophic chain, trophic web.
The traditional emphasis: Ecosystem's productivity.

The recent series of publications on aquatic ecosystems and cooperative function of aquatic organisms leads to a new view,  new understanding, and a new emphasis.
According to the new understanding, the main ecosystem function - in aquatic ecosystems - involves also, in addition to other functions - water self-purification which is linked to  multi-aspect destruction of organic matter in the ecosystem.
