A large, infrequent ecosystem subsidy (cicada carcasses) and warming additively accelerate development and increase growth of larval amphibians

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Many ecosystems receive resource subsidies that affect productivity and food webs. Ecosystem subsidies vary in quantity, quality, and timing, and effects are often mediated by environmental factors, including temperature. Deposition of periodical cicada carcasses into ponds represents a large, high‐quality, infrequent subsidy.

New Explicit Bounds on Gamidov Type Integral Inequalities for Functions in Two Variables and Their Applications

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
Some linear and nonlinear Gamidov type integral inequalities in two variables are established, which can give the explicit bounds on the solutions to a class of Volterra-Fredholm integral equations.

Optimal Control Problems of Forward-Backward Stochastic Volterra Integral Equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Optimal control problems of forward-backward stochastic Volterra integral equations (FBSVIEs in short) are formulated and studied. A general duality principle is established for linear backward stochastic integral equation and linear stochastic Fredholm ...

On the analyzing of bifurcation properties of the one‐dimensional Mackey–Glass model by using a generalized approach

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
The goal of this work is to look at how a nonlinear model describes hematopoiesis and its complexities utilizing commonly used techniques with historical and material links. Based on time delay, the Mackey–Glass model is explored in two instances. To offer a range, the relevance of the parameter impacting stability (bifurcation) is recorded.

Behavioral Cobweb Dynamics With Anticipatory Inventory and Ulam Stability: An Integro‐Differential Approach

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel extension of the classical cobweb price model by incorporating behavioral inventory responses through an anticipatory mini‐storage mechanism. In many real‐world commodity markets, persistent price oscillations occur even when classical stability conditions are theoretically satisfied, an inconsistency traditional ...

Inverse problem for a Fredholm third order partial integro-differential equation

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2014
The solvability of various problems for partial differential equations of the third order is researched in many papers. But, partial Fredholm integro-differential equations of the third order are studied comparatively less. Integro-differential equations

Is an ecosystem perspective sufficient to understand meta‐ecosystem processes? A critical reflection

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Meta‐ecosystems are the largest and probably most complex structures investigated in ecology. Because of their complexity they are often separated into their respective sub‐systems and then studied in isolation. This is often done without analysing whether an understanding of the individual ecosystems can lead to a proper understanding of the meta ...

Distilling food web dynamics: top–down and bottom–up drivers of extinction and trophic cascades

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Quantifying population dynamics is a fundamental challenge in ecology and evolutionary biology, particularly for species that are cryptic, microscopic, or extinct. Traditional approaches rely on continuous representations of population size, but in many cases, the precise number of individuals is unknowable.

Solvability of Some Integral Equations in Banach Space and Their Applications to the Theory of Viscoelasticity

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2012
An integral equation of Volterra type with additional compact operator in Banach space is considered. A special case is an integral equation of contact problem that arises in theory of viscoelasticity of mixed Fredholm and Volterra type with spectral ...

Seasonal variations in planktonic food web structure affect stability by shifting the distribution of energy fluxes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seasonality in temperate ecosystems shapes species phenology, influencing interactions and food web structure. Variations in species richness and biomass affect trophic interaction strength, a crucial factor for community stability, which can be assessed through energy fluxes – an essential indicator of ecosystem function.
