Spatiotemporal Patterns in Models of Biological Invasion and Epidemic Spread
Author: Frank Mathias Hilker
Publisher:
ISBN: 9783832510503
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Biological invasions are a severe ecological problem threatening biodiversity and causing substantial economic damages. Mathematical models of spatiotemporal spread have proven to be powerful tools in identifying the underlying mechanisms, thus contributing to the understanding of the factors that determine invasion processes and to the assessment of possible control methods. In this thesis, classical models are extended to combine spatial spread, population growth, disease transmission and community interactions. Applications are exemplarily found in the circulation of the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) - an HIV-similar lentivirus that induces AIDS in cat populations - and in viral infections in phytoplankton that forms the basis for all food chains and webs in the sea. The joint interplay of epidemics, predation and environmental stochasticity in invasion models is shown to generate rich and novel patterns of spatiotemporal spread such as the blocking and reversal of invasion fronts or the spatial `trapping' of infection as well as its noise-induced escape. The results of this thesis can explain real-world phenomena and have important implications for understanding and controlling invasion processes in ecosystems and epidemiology.

Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
Partial differential equations (PDEs) have been used in theoretical ecology research for more than eighty years. Nowadays, along with a variety of different mathematical techniques, they remain as an efficient, widely used modelling framework; as a matter of fact, the range of PDE applications has even become broader. This volume presents a collection of case studies where applications range from bacterial systems to population dynamics of human riots.

Integrodifference Equations in Spatial Ecology
Author: Frithjof Lutscher
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030292940
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
This book is the first thorough introduction to and comprehensive treatment of the theory and applications of integrodifference equations in spatial ecology. Integrodifference equations are discrete-time continuous-space dynamical systems describing the spatio-temporal dynamics of one or more populations. The book contains step-by-step model construction, explicitly solvable models, abstract theory and numerical recipes for integrodifference equations. The theory in the book is motivated and illustrated by many examples from conservation biology, biological invasions, pattern formation and other areas. In this way, the book conveys the more general message that bringing mathematical approaches and ecological questions together can generate novel insights into applications and fruitful challenges that spur future theoretical developments. The book is suitable for graduate students and experienced researchers in mathematical ecology alike.

ISBN: 1439898863
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
Introduction to Mathematical Modeling and Chaotic Dynamics focuses on mathematical models in natural systems, particularly ecological systems. Most of the models presented are solved using MATLAB®. The book first covers the necessary mathematical preliminaries, including testing of stability. It then describes the modeling of systems from natural science, focusing on one- and two-dimensional continuous and discrete time models. Moving on to chaotic dynamics, the authors discuss ways to study chaos, types of chaos, and methods for detecting chaos. They also explore chaotic dynamics in single and multiple species systems. The text concludes with a brief discussion on models of mechanical systems and electronic circuits. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this book provides a practical understanding of how the models are used in current natural science and engineering applications. Along with a variety of exercises and solved examples, the text presents all the fundamental concepts and mathematical skills needed to build models and perform analyses.
