Dominance and Spatiotemporal Behavior in Cyclic Ecological Systems

Description:

Deterministic models are used to explain and predict the dynamics of ecosystems featuring cyclic competition schemes. The models are systems of reaction-diffusion partialdifferential equations that account for species mobility via Fickian diffusion and interspecies interactions according to the competition scheme. Length and temporal scales are chosen to be appropriate for...

Traveling Waves in Models of Population Dynamics with Nonlocal Interactions

Description:

This thesis focuses on ecological models of population dynamics and the traveling, migratory waves that can result when a stable state either displaces an unstable state, or displaces another stable state. We consider the effect of nonlocal interactions, where members of the species interact over a distance. This gives rise...
