What is an ecosystem?

Labelled woodland ecosystem showing abiotic factors such as rainfall, sunlight, temperature, wind, soil and soil moisture linked to biotic components including oak tree, grasses, fungi, earthworm, caterpillar, bird, deer and a human visitor

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms interacting with each other and with the non-living environment in a particular place. It can be as small as a pond or as large as a regional woodland such as Epping Forest.
