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...

Multimodality in Social and Biological Systems

Description:

Perhaps because of the influence of the central limit theorem, it is common for scientists to assume distributions in the real world are singly peaked and unimodal. However, many quantities in nature are actually better represented by multimodal distributions. One must provide an explanation for this disconnect between the central...
