1.1.1 Systems and Synergy
Guru IB ESS SYSTEMS & MODELS
1

What do these pictures, have in common?
2

They are all Systems
3

What is the meaning of the word system?
4

A system is something that:
1.Is made up of individual component parts that work together to perform a particular function
2. A bicycle is an example of a system
5

But if the parts of the bicycle are piled up in the middle of the room, they cease to work together and thus stop being a system.
6

So a system could be...?
7

•A building
•a flower
•an atom
•a political party
•a car
•your body
•furniture
•an electric circuit
8

What is the use of Systems Concept
Why do we use Systems?
•Useful for understanding and explaining phenomena
•A holistic approach that can lead to a deeper understanding and possibly to further discoveries

SYNERGY
• One of the most fascinating characteristics of any and all structures is the characteristic called SYNERGY
11

WHAT IS SYNERGY?
•A state in which two or more things work together in a particularly fruitful way that produces an effect greater the sum of their individual effects.
12

EXAMPLE OF SYNERGY
13

Another example of synergy
•Ordinary Table Salt (NaCl, Sodium Chloride)
•Synergy: The behaviour of whole systems that is unpredicted by knowing the behaviour of the individual parts taken separately
• Na (sodium) is a metal, highly reactive in water, explosive, burns with a yellow flame.
•Cl (chlorine) is a deadly greenish gas.
•Both of these elements when taken separately are poisonous and deadly BUT
14

SALT
•When combined, we witness synergy. Two deadly substances combine to produce something that we cannot live without.
•Something unique and new and unpredictable happens when two or more things come together and work together
15

Atoms combine together to form structural systems
1.The behaviour of the table salt is totally unpredictable by simply knowing the behaviour of the individual parts.
2.All nature, all systems, all structures display synergy. The Universe is the Synergy of Synergies.
16

Another way to say this is :
•Even if you know all the parts that make up a system you still cannot know or even predict how the whole system is going to behave or work.
•Can you give an example of this??
17

The Human Body
1.If you take all the stuff that makes up a person, you would find that we are made up of:
2.Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon, Water, Calcium, Sodium, Magnesium, Sulfur, Iron and many other elements. The total cost of all of these things at the store is about……????
18

Even if you looked at the next level up…the Cell
1.Even if you knew what all the cells in your body do, you still could not describe YOU.
2.Something very unique and new and unpredictable happens when the parts of a system work together.
19

Discovery
•One great truth about discovery is that, “One discovery often leads to further discoveries”
20

Bring different ideas Together
•One of the best places to find ideas for structural systems is in NATURE.
•Nature always uses the most economical, efficient and reliable structural systems
21

What is a Model?
What is a model?
•A representation or a simulation, could be conceptual, physical, mathematical
22

Why Models
Why models?
•The real thing is not available or it’s impractical
•Too rare, too complex, too big, too expensive
23

How to evaluate a model?
•Does it explain past observations
•Does it agree with other models
•Does it predict accurately
24

Ecosystems Ecological Systems
•Ecological Systems follow the laws of synergy as well.
•It is the interrelationships between the parts that produces the behaviour of the whole.
26

27

Environmental Systems and Societies
Interrelationships among climate, geology, soil, vegetation, and animals.
28

What is ENERGY?
•Energy is defined as the ability or the capacity to do work.
•Energy causes things to happen around us
•Energy lights our cities, powers our vehicles, and runs machinery in factories. It warms and cools our homes, cooks our food, plays our music, and gives us pictures on television.
29

What is MATTER?
•Matter is generally considered to be anything that has mass and volume
•Example:
•a car would be said to be made of matter, as it occupies space, and has mass.

1.1.1.Outline the concept and characteristic of systems
31

32

TYPES OF SYSTEM
1.OPEN SYSTEM
2.CLOSED SYSTEM
3.ISOLATED SYSTEM
33

1. OPEN SYSTEM: a system in which both matter and energy are exchanged across boundaries of the system.
Systems are defined by the source and ultimate destination of their matter and/or energy.
Most natural living systems are OPEN systems.
34

35

36

37

2. CLOSED SYSTEM: a system in which energy is exchanged across boundaries of the system, but matter is not. Example-Aquarium & Terrarium
38

39

A small enclosure or closed container in which selected living plants and sometimes small land animals, such as turtles and lizards, are kept and observed.
Terrarium
40

3. ISOLATED SYSTEM: a system in which neither energy nor matter is exchanged with its envioronemt.Do not exist naturally
NO SUCH SYSTEM EXISTS!!!
Example:Space Station(artifical)

Two basic processes must occur in an ecosystem:
1.A cycling of chemical elements.
2.Flow of energy. Energy flows through systems while materials circulate around systems.

1.1.7 Desccribe transfer and transformation processes
50

TRANSFERS OF ENERGY
TRANSFORMATTION OF ENERGY
51

What are transfer process
•A transfer is a process where there is a change in location within the system, but there is no change in state.
Example:
•Water is falling from clouds to the ground as rain.
52

CLOUDS IN THE FORM OF WATER
OCEAN
CHANGE IN LOCATION
STATE
53

What are transformation process?
•Transformation are process that leads to the formation of new products or change in state
Example:
•Evaporation of water from a lake into the atmosphere
54

•Transfer are process that lead to a change in location but not a change in state
•Transformation are process that leads to the formation of new products or c change in state
55

Describe Transfer and Transformation
•Transfer - just a movement from one place to another ….water mountain to ocean..
•Transformation - actual change of state or material -- liquid water/evaporates… CO2 to sugars/starch in plant .
56

Transfer vs. transformation
•Transfer involves a change in location
–e.g. water falling as rain, running off the land into a river then to the sea
•Transformation involves a change in state
–e.g. evaporation of water from a lake into the atmosphere

3.Within a system energy cannot be re-used.
What is Thermodynamics?
69

70

•The study of thermodynamics is about energy flow in natural systems
•The Laws of Thermodynamics describe what is known about energy transformations in our universe
71

•Two laws
•First Law of Thermodynamics
•Second Law of Thermodynamics
72

1st Law of Thermodynamics

80

Answer this………………..
81

Using the first law of thermodynamics explain why the energy pyramid is always pyramid shaped (bottom bigger than top)
82

2nd Law of Thermodynamics
1.The Second Law is the Law of Entropy(disorder, randomness or chaos).
2.It is essential state that as energy is transformed from one state to another state ,the conversion is never 100% efficient and therefore energy is always lost to that system
3.Every energy transformation or transfer results in an increase in the disorder of the universe
83

84

85

•In any spontaneous process the energy transformation is not 100 % efficient, part of it is lost (dissipated) as heat which, can not be used to do work (within the system) to fight against entropy.
•In fact, for most ecosystems, processes are on average only 10% efficient (10% Principle), this means that for every energy passage (transformation) 90% is lost in the form of heat energy, only 10% passes to the next element in the system.
•Most biological processes are very inefficient in their transformation of energy which is lost as heat.
The Second Law of Thermodynamics can also be stated in the following way:
86

What results from the second law of Thermodynamics?
87

The Second Law of Thermodynamics in numbers: The 10% Law For most ecological process, theamount of energy that is passed from one trophic level to the next is on average 10%.
Heat Heat Heat
900 J 90 J 9 J
Energy 1 Process 1 Process 2 Process 3
1000 J 100 J 10 J 1 J
J = Joule SI Unit of Energy
1kJ = 1 Kilo Joule = 1000 Joules
88

Second Law of Thermodynamics
89

•Any conversion is less than 100% efficient and therefore some energy is lost or wasted.
•Usually this energy is lost in the form of HEAT (= random energy of molecular movement). We usually summarize it as respiration.

•Tallest flower
96

Why both the laws are important in ecosystem or environment?
•Both the laws are important because when analyzing the energy transfers in an ecosystem and living organism is general
97

•1.One way energy enters an ecosystem is as sunlight. This sunlight energy is then changed into biomass by photosynthesis.
•2.That is photosynthesis captures sunlight energy and transforms it into chemical energy.
•3.Chemical energy in producers may be passed along food chain as biomass or given off as heat during respiration
98

99

100

•4.Available energy is used to do work such as growth, movement and making complex molecules.
•5.All the energy leaves the ecosystem as heat. No new energy has been created.
•6.It has simply transformed and passed from one form to another.
•7.Although matter can be recycled, energy cannot and once it has been lost from the system in the form of heat it cannot made available again.

•What is EQUILIBRIUM?
•Three types of equilibrium
103

104

What is Equilibrium
•Equilibrium is the tendency of the system to return to an original state following disturbance, a state of balance exists among the components of that system.
105

3 TYPES
1.STEADY –STATE EQUILIBRIUM
2.STATIC EQUILIBRIUM
3.STABLE & UNSTABLE EQUILIBRIUM
106

STEADY –STATE EQUILIBRIUM EXAMPLE
If these birth & death rates are equal there is no net change In population size
birth
death
107

WHERE YOU CAN SEE STEADY –STATE EQUILIBRIUM IN ECOSYSTEM
QUESTION
108

Food chain & Food web are the example of Steady –State Equilibrium
109

Steady –State Equilibrium
•A Steady –state equilibrium is a characteristic of open system where there are continuous inputs and outputs of energy and matter, but the system as a whole remains in a more or less constant state.
•Most open systems in nature are in steady- state equilibrium.
•This means that even though there are constant inputs and outputs of energy and matter there is overall stability within the system.
110

111

Rate of water entering = Rate of water leaving Hence the level of water is constant
112

STATIC EQUILIBRIUM
•Static Equilibrium in which there is no change over time
•The force within the system are in balance, and the components remain unchanged in their relationship.
•In Static Equilibrium there are no inputs or outputs of matter or energy and no change in the system over time.
•No natural system are in static equilibrium because
all natural system have inputs and outputs of energy and matter
113

let us consider two children sitting on a see- saw. At balance point (i.e., the equilibrium position) no movement of children on the see- saw occurs.
114

QUESTION
WHERE YOU CAN SEE STATIC EQUILIBRIUM IN ECOSYSTEM
115

•Most non living system are in Static Equilibrium
116

STABLE & UNSTABLE EQUILIBRIUM
•In a stable equilibrium the system tends to return to the same equilibrium after a disturbance
•In an unstable equilibrium the system returns to a new equilibrium after disturbance

1Positive and Negative Feedback
129

Walking in hot sun, temperature rises
Body will lose heat
ONE ACTION IS INCREASING
ONE ACTION IS DECREASING
Negative feedback systems
130

Negative feedback systems
•Negative feedback systems include a sequence of events that will cause an effect that is in the opposite direction to the original stimulus and thereby brings the system back to its equilibrium position.
131

Example of Negative Feedback
•Predator/prey relationships
132

•Predator/prey relationships are usually controlled by negative feedback where:
The increase in prey  increase in predator decrease in prey decrease in predator increase in prey---and so on in a cyclical manner.
133

The classic study in Northern Canada between the Wild Cat and the hare populations is famous for its regular 11 year cycle of rising and falling populations.
134

Negative feedback
•Predator Prey is a classic Example
–Snowshoe hare population increases
–More food for Lynx  Lynx population increases
–Increased predation on hares  hare population declines
–Less food for Lynx  Lynx population declines
–Less predation  Increase in hare population

Poor standards of education
Absence of family planning
Positive feedback
poverty
143

Positive feedback
•Positive feedback includes a sequence of events that will cause a change in the same direction as the stimulus and thereby augments the change, moving the state of the system even further from the equilibrium point.
144

145

Positive feedback
•Change leads to increasing change – it accelerates deviation
Example: Global warming
1.Temperature increases  Ice caps melt
2.Less Ice cap surface area  Less sunlight is reflected away from earth (albedo)
3.More light hits dark ocean and heat is trapped
4.Further temperature increase  Further melting of the ice

Most systems change by a combination of positive and negative feedback processes
152

Which of the populations show positive feedback? Which of the populations show negative feedback?
I-POSTIVE FEEDBACK II-NEGATIVE III-NEGATIVE IV-POSTIVE
153

WHICH IS POSTIVE & NEGATIVE
•If a pond ecosystem became polluted with nitrates, washed off agricultural land by surface runoff, algae would rapidly grow in the pond.
•The amount of dissolved oxygen in the water would decrease, killing the fish.
•The decomposers that would increase due to the dead fish would further decrease the amount of dissolved oxygen and so on...
•A good supply of grass for rabbits to eat will attract more rabbits to the area, which puts pressure on the grass, so it dies back, so the decreased food supply leads to a decrease in population because of death or out migration, which takes away the pressure on the grass, which leads to more growth and a good supply of food which leads to a more rabbits attracted to the area which puts pressure on the grass and so on and on....
154

End result? Equilibrium…Recap
•A sort of equalization or end point
•Steady state equilibrium  constant changes in all directions maintain a constant state (no net change) – common to most open systems in nature
•Static equilibrium  No change at all – condition to which most natural systems can be compared but this does not exist
•Long term changes in equilibrium point do occur (evolution, succession)
•Equilibrium is stable (systems tend to return to the original equilibrium after disturbances)
155

Equilibrium generally maintained by negative feedback – inputs should equal outputs
156

157

You should be able to create a system model.

Evaluating Models
•Used when we can’t accurately measure the real event
•Models are hard with the environment because there are so many interacting variables – but nothing else could do better
•Allows us to predict likelihood of events
•But…
•They are approximations
•They may yield very different results from each other or actual events
•There are always unanticipated possibilities…
165

Anticipating Environmental Surprises
•Remember any action we take has multiple unforseen consequences
•Discontinuities = Abrupt shifts occur in previously stable systems once a threshold is crossed
•Synergistic interactions = 2 factors combine to produce greater effects than they do alone
•Unpredictable or chaotic events = hurricanes, earthquakes, climate shifts
•http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2008/FAY_graphics.shtml
166

What can we do?
•Develop more complex models for systems
•Increase research on environmental thresholds for better predictive power
•Formulate possible scenarios and solutions ahead of time

•1.1.9-Construct and analyse quantitative models involving flows and storages in a system.
181

What is a Model?
•A model is a simplified description to show the structure and working of a system.
•Models can be used to show the flows, storage and linkages within ecosystem.
•While they are unable to show much of the complexity of the real system, they help us to understand ecosystem function better
182

183

184

•The width of arrows can vary in size; wider arrows are used to show larger flows.
•The size of boxes can also vary larger boxes are used to show larger storages
185

186

•Shows nutrient flows and storages
•The biomass storage is larger in the woodland and the litter storage is larger in the forest
•Large output flow in the farming system because of the HARVESTED CROPS & LIVESTOCK
•Models that include quantitative descriptions of the system provide more meaningful information
187

•1.1.10 Evaluate the strengths and limitations of models.
188

EVALUATION OF MODELS
STRENGTHS
•Model allow scientist to predict and simplify complex systems
•They allow inputs to be changed and outcomes examined without having to wait a long time.
•Models allow results to be shown to other scientist and to the public and are easier to understand than detailed information about the whole system
189

190

LIMITATION
•Different models may show different using the same data. For example models that predict the effect of climate change may give very different results
•Models are oversimplified they may become less accurate. for example there are many complex factors involved in atmospheric systems
191

•Because many assumptions have to made about these complex factors climate models may not accurate
•Any model is only as good as the data that are used in them .In addition the data put into the model may not be reliable
•Models rely on the expertise of the people making them and this can lead to inaccuracies
192

•Different people may interpret models in different ways and so come to different conclusion
