  • Primary removals: It occurs when the researcher intentionally removes one species, simulating a single extinction.
  • Secondary extinctions: A secondary extinction occurs when a non basal species loses all of its prey items due to the removal of another species.
  • Total extinctions: The sum of primary removal and secondary extinctions in one simulation. .
