摘要：The aim of this work is to gain knowledge on the interaction between the Chlorophyll - a and nine meroplankton larvae of epibenthonic fauna. The studied case is Arraial do Cabo upwelling system, South eastern Brazil, which provides different environmental conditions. To access this information, a network a pproach based in probability estimative was used. These techniques are aimed at discovering natural divisions of networks into groups, based on metrics of strength of connection between vertices. Comparisons among the generated networks are made in the li ght of different water masses, application of Shannon biodiversity index, the closeness and betweenness centralities measurements. Our results show the main pattern among distinct water masses and how the organisms belonging to the core network are correla ted to the main environmental variable. We conclude that the approach of complex networks is a promising tool for environmental diagnosis
