Effects of GSCs and LGPs on biomass density and ecosystem structure. a Biomass density versus community trophic efficiency (cTE) where gray shading shows distribution of cTE for marine ecosystems (cTE = 0.101 ± 0.058). b Mass scaling coefficient from least squares fit, k f, versus calculated theoretical value, k t, from size-spectra theory. Size of data points represents the distribution of cTE for marine ecosystems
