Trophic cascades are ecological phenomena that occur when the addition or removal of top predators in an ecosystem significantly affects the population dynamics of species at lower trophic levels. This concept highlights the interconnectedness of food webs and demonstrates how changes in one part of the ecosystem can have far-reaching effects on others, influencing species behavior, biodiversity, and ecosystem health.
