Ecological communities are shaped by a complex array of direct and indirect interactions. These interactions are spatially and temporally dynamic and can be challenging to disentangle.

Direct distribution channels deliver products directly to consumers. Indirect channels use intermediaries to make deliveries. Manufacturers pay costs in either case.

The researchers used a mathematical model that accounts for both direct and indirect interactions in the network to adjust the experimental results and determine how influence decays with social ...
