sensitivity analysis The consideration of a number of factors involved in the mathematical modelling of an ecosystem and its components. These include feedback and control, and the stability and sensitivity of the system as a whole to changes in some parts of the system. From the analysis, predictions can be made.

sensitivity analysis Investigation of the degree to which the behavior of a system is affected by a change in the value of some (explicit or implicit) parameter or variable, or by a combination of changes. For example, a simple analysis might determine how the performance of a system is impacted by changing the number and sizes of the storage buffers that are allocated to that system.
