We study how changing the weight datum A = (a 1 , ..., a n ) ∈ (Q ∩ (0, 1]) n affects the topology of tropical moduli spaces M trop g,A , M trop g,A and ∆ g,A and the homology of the latter one. We show that for fixed g and n, there are particular filtrations of these topological spaces which we can use to compute the reduced rational homology of ∆ g,A and the top weight cohomology of the moduli space M g,A of smooth (g, A)-stable algebraic curves.
