- Nonlinearity
- … equations is the canonical fluid nonlinearity), and Einstein's nonlinear field equations of general relativity. Biology and ecology uses nonlinearity for logistic population growth (Verhulst), predator-prey dynamics (Lotka-Volterra), enzyme kinetics (Michaelis-Menten), Holling's saturating functional responses
This source(Originating treatment of the Type I / II / III functional-response classification for predator consumption rate as a function of prey density; the founding catalogue of saturation forms in ecological dynamics. Type II is structurally Michaelis-Menten; Type III adds sigmoidal threshold behaviour.)

- Rate Limiting
- In ecology it is the functional response — a predator's consumption rate of prey saturates as prey density grows, limited by handling time — the natural-system version, with the constraint internal to the consumer rather than externally imposed.
This sourceDefines the functional response: a predator's prey-consumption rate saturates as prey density rises, limited by handling time — the natural-system rate limit internal to the consumer.
