      The paper presents a mathematical theory of physical processes that arise in boundary (stimulus-response) and interior (state transition) components of causality in environmental or ecological systems. The objective is to formalise how complexity structure and function contribute to causation in ecological systems, i.e. in generalized open systems with environment. The environment consists of two parts, the stimulus (or input) environment and the response environment. A mathematical characterisation of causal phenomena in the system are presented in the form of three transformation functions: stimulus environment to system transformation, internal transformation and system to response environment transformation.
