Ecological network patterns are influenced by diverse processes that operate at different
temporal rates. Here we analyzed whether the coupled effect of local abundance variation …

This article studies the effects of adaptive changes in predator and/or prey activities on the
Lotka-Volterra predator-prey population dynamics. The model assumes the classical …

In this article the patch and diet choice models of the optimal foraging theory are reanalyzed
with respect to evolutionary stability of the optimal foraging strategies. In their original setting …

Recent modeling studies exploring the effect of consumers' adaptivity in diet composition on
food web complexity invariably suggest that adaptivity in foraging decisions of consumers …

Foraging animals are often constrained by their limited perception of the distribution of their
food resources. Waders are likely to face such constraints when foraging on buried prey in …

Purple sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Stimpson, 1857)) are abundant grazing
invertebrates that can have a major impact on the rocky intertidal community. Predators can …

This thesis is about mathematical modeling of mostly animal populations. Therefore, it
dwells at the interface of two fields: mathematics and biology (or more specifically population …

Energy gain is thought to play a central role in prey selection by most foragers, but it may
conflict with food theft avoidance and be constrained by undeveloped foraging skills. We …

In 2002, a proposal was submitted to divert water from the confluence of the Guadalupe and
San Antonio Rivers to San Antonio, Texas. To investigate the potential impacts of diverting …
