This study employs the Composite Multi-Factor Relationship (CMFR) model to delve into the complex interactions between sea lampreys and their prey within the Great Lakes, using a dataset from 2001 to 2011. It reveals how fluctuations in the sex ratio of lampreys alongside environmental factors critically influence the stability of the ecosystem. Through meticulous integration of data regarding plankton conditions and lamprey sex ratios, the research outlines the profound impact these variables have on predation behaviors and, subsequently, the ecological balance. The findings illuminate the utility of the CMFR model in shedding light on species interactions, providing vital insights for the strategic management of invasive species to safeguard ecosystem health. Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of considering diverse biological and environmental factors in ecosystem management, offering valuable strategies for maintaining biodiversity and ecological stability. This comprehensive analysis contributes significantly to our understanding of predator-prey dynamics and the broader implications for aquatic ecosystem sustainability.
