Population Growth and Persistence in a Heterogeneous Environment: the Role of Diffusion and Advection

A. B. Ryabov, B. Blasius (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

The spatio-temporal dynamics of a population present one of the most fascinating aspects and challenges for ecological modelling. In this article we review some simple mathematical models, based on one dimensional reaction-diffusion-advection equations, for the growth of a population on a heterogeneous habitat. Considering a number of models of increasing complexity we investigate the often contrary roles of advection and diffusion for the persistence of the population. When it is possible...

Large time behavior in a density-dependent population dynamics problem with age structure and child care

Vladas Skakauskas (2003)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Two asexual density-dependent population dynamics models with age-dependence and child care are presented. One of them includes the random diffusion while in the other the population is assumed to be non-dispersing. The population consists of the young (under maternal care), juvenile, and adult classes. Death moduli of the juvenile and adult classes in both models are decomposed into the sum of two terms. The first presents death rate by the natural causes while the other describes the...

Population changes as litmus paper of the socio-economic development level of small towns in Poland

Agnieszka Kwiatek-Sołtys (2015)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

The main aim of the author was to analyse the population changes of small towns in Poland between 2002 and 2012. Small towns’ reaction to the global and regional demographic trends confirms their position between the rural areas and the urban municipalities. The differences between separate towns are significant, however those located within the metropolitan areas in Poland show a positive population dynamics, natural growth and migration balance net indexes. The image of small towns...
