Population dynamics and species interactions are spread out in space. This might seem like
a trivial observation, but it has potentially important consequences. In particular …

Spatial coherence between predators and prey has rarely been observed in pelagic marine
ecosystems. We used measures of the environment, prey abundance, prey quality, and prey …

While for pathogen clones singly occupying a host it may pay to adopt a relatively avirulent
host exploitation strategy, clones sharing a host have a conflict of interest that favors more …

We investigate the dynamics of a predator-prey model that explicitly accounts for the spatial
position and the movement behaviour of individual prey and predators, and does not …

This book presents a comprehensive typology and a comprehensible description of
spatiotemporal models used in population dynamics. The main types included are: reaction …

As anthropogenic environmental changes spread and intensify across the planet,
conservation biologists have to analyze dynamics at large spatial and temporal scales …

Numerous studies have been devoted to estimating the intrinsic rates of increase, rm, of
phytoseiid and tetranychid mites. Intrinsic rates of increase may be helpful for biological …

We describe and analyse a general metapopulation model, which consists of a model of
local dynamics within a habitat patch, and balance equations for dispersing individuals and …

The prediction that single spider species (as exemplary generalist predators) limit
associated prey populations to the same extent that species assemblages do was tested in a …

Levins's unstructured metapopulation model predicts that the equilibrium fraction of empty
habitat patches is a constant function of the fractionhof suitable patches in the landscape …
