Ecology of Vespidae (Hymenoptera)Predators in Coffea arabica Plantations
Sociobiology, 2014 Social Vespidae exhibit control of Leucoptera coffeella (Lepidoptera: Lyonetiidae) in Brazil. The objective was to determine the ideal unit for sampling of predaceous Vespidae in coffee crops in the vegetative and reproductive phases.

Fluctuations and Correlations in Lattice Models for Predator-Prey Interaction
, 2006 Including spatial structure and stochastic noise invalidates the classical Lotka-Volterra picture of stable regular population cycles emerging in models for predator-prey interactions.

Revisiting the stability of spatially heterogeneous predator-prey systems under eutrophication [PDF]
, 2015 We employ partial integro-differential equations to model trophic interaction in a spatially extended heterogeneous environment. Compared to classical reaction-diffusion models, this framework allows us to more realistically describe the situation where ...

Intraguild predation and competition impacts on a subordinate predator [PDF]
Oecologia, 2016 Intraguild (IG) predation and interspecific competition may affect the settlement and success of species in their habitats. Using data on forest-dwelling hawks from Finland, we addressed the impact of an IG predator, the northern goshawk Accipiter gentilis (goshawk), on the breeding of an IG prey, the common buzzard Buteo buteo.

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 We study the feasibility and profitability of predation in a dynamic environment, using a parsimonious infinite-horizon, complete information setting in which an incumbent repeatedly faces potential entry. When a rival enters, the incumbent chooses whether to accommodate or predate it; the entrant then decides whether to stay or exit.

Cell Membrane Vesicle Camouflaged Artificial Cells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Artificial cells camouflaged with a cell membrane vesicle coating are able to assemble into synthetic aggregates that exhibit rudimentary communication capabilities. Additionally, when these artificial cells are equipped with antioxidant capabilities, they are able to protect the intracellular homeostasis in HepG2 cells present in semi‐synthetic ...

Interactions between different predator-prey states. A method for the derivation of the functional and numerical response [PDF]
2020, Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2019 In this paper we introduce a formal method for the derivation of a predator's functional response from a system of fast state transitions of the prey or predator on a time scale during which the total prey and predator densities remain constant. Such derivation permits an explicit interpretation of the structure and parameters of the functional ...

Dynamics for the diffusive Leslie-Gower model with double free boundaries
, 2017 In this paper we investigate a free boundary problem for the diffusive Leslie-Gower prey-predator model with double free boundaries in one space dimension.

On some Free Boundary Problems of the Prey-predator Model [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper we investigate some free boundary problems for the Lotka-Volterra type prey-predator model in one space dimension. The main objective is to understand the asymptotic behavior of the two species (prey and predator) spreading via a free ...

PLoS Biology, 2008 When voters in Washington State banned hound hunting with an eye to protecting cougars, they unwittingly triggered a chain of events that wildlife biologists are still trying to understand.
