Modeling the herd prey response to individualistic predators attacks
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 46, Issue 12, Page 13436-13456, August 2023., 2023 In this paper, we consider predators hunting on prey gathered in groups and in such way exhibiting the possibility of reducing the predators pressure. To model this feature, however, we depart from the Holling type II (HTII) response function, in that we assume that a sufficiently large set of prey could respond to individualistic attacks and therefore

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 5-15, March 2023., 2023 Abstract Agriculture needs to develop novel strategies and practices to meet the increasing global food demand, in an ecological and economical sustainable framework. The plant‐associated microbiota is gaining increasing attention as part of these strategies since it strongly contributes to plant health, nutrition, and resilience to environmental ...

When are bacteria really gazelles? Comparing patchy ecologies with dimensionless numbers
Ecology Letters, Volume 25, Issue 5, Page 1323-1341, May 2022., 2022 From micro to planetary scales, patchiness is ubiquitous in ecosystems, but it is not always clear when it must be modelled explicitly or if there are general dynamics underlying the innumerable ecological interactions occurring in patchy environments. To address these questions, we applied a conceptual framework based on dimensional analysis (Grünbaum,

A Lei de Lotka na bibliometria brasileira [PDF]
Ciência da Informação, 2002 Usando os dados reportados em artigos publicados em revistas brasileiras e trabalhos apresentados em congressos nacionais, replicaram-se as aplicações da Lei de Lotka à literatura brasileira em 10 campos diferentes. Utilizou-se o modelo do poder inverso pelos métodos do mínimo quadrado e probabilidade máxima.

Population dynamical behavior of Lotka-Volterra system under regime switching [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper, we investigate a Lotka-Volterra system under regime switching dx(t) = diag(x1(t); : : : ; xn(t))[(b(r(t)) + A(r(t))x(t))dt + (r(t))dB(t)]; where B(t) is a standard Brownian motion.

Oikos, Volume 130, Issue 11, Page 2028-2039, November 2021., 2021 Phenotypic evolution in sympatric species can be strongly impacted by species interactions, either mutualistic or antagonistic. Heterospecific reproductive behaviours between sympatric species have been shown to favour phenotypic divergence of traits used as sexual cues. Those traits may also be involved in local adaptation or in other types of species

The relation between a 2D Lotka-Volterra equation and a 2D Toda lattice [PDF]
, 2005 It is shown that the 2-discrete dimensional Lotka-Volterra lattice, the two dmensional Toda lattice equation and the recent 2-discrete dimensional Toda lattice equation of Santini et al can be obtained from a 2-discrete 2-continuous dimensional Lotka ...

Biodiversity as insurance: from concept to measurement and application
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 5, Page 2333-2354, October 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Biological insurance theory predicts that, in a variable environment, aggregate ecosystem properties will vary less in more diverse communities because declines in the performance or abundance of some species or phenotypes will be offset, at least partly, by smoother declines or increases in others.

Crescimento da literatura e dos autores sobre a Lei de Lotka [PDF]
Ciência da Informação, 2009 Analisa o crescimento da literatura produzida sobre a Lei de Lotka, assim como o crescimento dos autores produtores dessa literatura, de 1922 a 2003. Nesse período o crescimento da literatura segue o modelo exponencial, com taxa média de crescimento de 7,5% ao ano e taxa de duplicação a cada 9,6 anos. Também o número de autores produtores da literatura
