Ecosystem structure... describes the physical features(abiotic) and organisms(biotic) of an environment including the distribution of nutrients and other prevailing climatic conditions, and the relationships between them. In the simplest definition possible, ecosystem structure is the network of interactions between components(biotic and abiotic) of the system.  2, record 1, English, - ecosystem%20structure

Les bâtiments régénératifs sont conçus pour être en symbiose avec leur environnement et contribuer à la restauration et à l’enrichissement des milieux dans lesquels ils s’insèrent, tant au niveau des écosystèmes, des communautés humaines que de l’économie. Au terme de son cycle de vie, le bâtiment régénératif aura fourni plus de bénéfices à l’environnement et à la société qu’il ne lui aura soutiré de ressources (net-positif), notamment : création de biodiversité, production d’eau de qualité, d’énergie, de nourriture et d’oxygène, capture de GES [gaz à effet de serre] ou opportunités de socialisation. Bien que les technologies puissent être intégrées dans cette approche, son principe de base est d’abord et avant tout la conception passive inspirée des cycles naturels.  1, record 3, French, - b%C3%A2timent%20r%C3%A9g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ratif

The smallest landscape unit in the ecological holarchy... of concrete systems is the ecotope, while the largest system is the ecosphere that embraces all biological and technological ecosystems. Therefore, the environment which learners of EE course directly observe is usually an ecotope which is the smallest holistic land unit.... According to Naveh..., an important thing is that the ecotope has two extreme types : one is the "biotope"(a term redefined by me for this context) or ecotope of bioecosystem that is maintained by the input of solar energy, natural biotic and abiotic resource materials; and the other is the "technotope"(a term proposed by me) or ecotope of technoecosystem that is constructed and maintained by man's input of energy and material and is regulated by man.  2, record 4, English, - ecotope
