Based on the given ecological pyramid, we can determine the parameter and the ecosystem by analyzing the units and the shape of the pyramid.

1. Parameter: The values are given in $\text{kg m}^{-2}$, which represents mass per unit area. This is the standard unit for measuring biomass. Therefore, it is a pyramid of biomass. Pyramids of numbers would just have counts (individuals), and pyramids of energy would have units of energy per area per time (e.g., $\text{J m}^{-2} \text{yr}^{-1}$ or $\text{kcal m}^{-2} \text{yr}^{-1}$).

2. Ecosystem: The pyramid is upright, meaning the biomass is maximum at the primary producer level ($809 \text{ kg m}^{-2}$) and progressively decreases at higher trophic levels ($37$, $11$, and $1.5 \text{ kg m}^{-2}$). An upright pyramid of biomass is characteristic of terrestrial ecosystems (like forests or grasslands), where the standing crop of producers is much larger than that of consumers. In contrast, aquatic or marine ecosystems typically exhibit an inverted pyramid of biomass, as the standing crop of phytoplankton (producers) is usually smaller than that of zooplankton and fishes (consumers) due to their rapid turnover rate.

Thus, the figure accurately represents a pyramid of biomass in a terrestrial ecosystem.

Answer: Pyramid of biomass in a terrestrial ecosystem
