Stochastic Gain in Population Dynamics [PDF]
We introduce an extension of the usual replicator dynamics to adaptive learning rates. We show that a population with a dynamic learning rate can gain an increased average payoff in transient phases and can also exploit external noise, leading the system away from the Nash equilibrium, in a reasonance-like fashion.

Time-series analysis of parish register series can be used to study human population dynamics at three different levels: (i) The metapopulation of preindustrial rural England. A short wavelength, exogenous oscillation in the burials series of 404 parishes can be detected which, it is suggested, was driven by a cycle of malnutrition associated with ...

LEARNING, EVOLUTION AND POPULATION DYNAMICS [PDF]
We study a complementarity game as a systematic tool for the investigation of the interplay between individual optimization and population effects and for the comparison of different strategy and learning schemes. The game randomly pairs players from opposite populations. It is symmetric at the individual level, but has many equilibria that are more or

The stomach contents of 0 to 3 year old salmon were investigated throughout a single 20 hour period in each of July, August and September 1981. There was no marked diurnal variation in stomach content of fry, while that of parr indicated nocturnal ...

Recent Population Dynamics of Japanese Encephalitis Virus
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) causes acute viral encephalitis in humans and reproductive disorders in pigs. JEV emerged during the 1870s in Japan, and since that time, JEV has been transmitted exclusively throughout Asia, according to known reporting

Recoveries of Common Seals Phoca vitulina L. tagged along the Norwegian coast
A total of 296 Common Seals have been tagged along the Norwegian coast in the period from 1978 to 1987. Thirty six of the tagged seals have been recovered. Twenty six during their first year of life.

Stock assessment and exploitation of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. in the river Drammenselv
In 1985 the total salmon run and the exploitation rate in the river Drammenselv were estimated by combining catch statistics, counts of ascending salmon in a salmon ladder at Hellefoss, and a tagging-recapture experiment of the spawning stock below the ...

Ecological ramifications of adaptation to size-selective mortality
Size-selective mortality due to harvesting is a threat to numerous exploited species, but how it affects the ecosystem remains largely unexplored. Here, we used a pond mesocosm experiment to assess how evolutionary responses to opposite size-selective ...
