Microgastrinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) parasitizing Epirrita autumnata (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) larvae in Fennoscandia with description of Cotesia autumnatae Shaw, sp. n. [PDF]
, 2013 The microgastrine subset of hymenopteran parasitoids of the geometrid Epirrita autumnata is investigated in Fennoscandia. Ecology, including population dynamics, of the moth has been intensively studied in northern and mountainous Finland, Norway and ...

Mapping Population Dynamics at Local Scales Using Spatial Networks
Complexity, 2021 Nowadays, around half of the global population lives in urban areas. This rate is expected to increase up to two-thirds by the year 2050. Most studies analyze urban dynamics in wide geographic ranges, focusing mainly on cities.

On the Validity of Neural Mass Models
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2021 Modeling the dynamics of neural masses is a common approach in the study of neural populations. Various models have been proven useful to describe a plenitude of empirical observations including self-sustained local oscillations and patterns of distant ...

Evolution of Music by Public Choice [PDF]
, 2012 Music evolves as composers, performers, and consumers favor some musical variants over others. To investigate the role of consumer selection, we constructed a Darwinian music engine consisting of a population of short audio loops that sexually reproduce ...

Border Collision Bifurcations in a Generalized Model of Population Dynamics [PDF]
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2016 We analyze the dynamics of a generalized discrete time population model of a two‐stage species with recruitment and capture. This generalization, which is inspired by other approaches and real data that one can find in literature, consists in considering no restriction for the value of the two key parameters appearing in the model, that is, the natural

Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2022 Habitat loss and harvesting of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) significantly affect the population dynamics. In this paper, we propose a general mathematical modelling approach incorporating the impact of habitat size reduction and non-lethal ...

The Dynamics of Specialization and Generalization within Biological Populations
Advances in Complex Systems, 1998 We develop an abstract model to explore specialization and generalization in task performance by individuals within biological populations. Individuals follow simple rules of increasing and decreasing task propensities that could, for example, be based on learning and forgetting.

Condition-Dependent Neural Dimensions Progressively Shift during Reach to Grasp
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Neural population space analysis was performed to assess the dimensionality and dynamics of the neural population in the primary motor cortex (M1) during a reach-grasp-manipulation task in which both the reach location and the object being ...
