The spatially variable effects of mangroves on flood depths and losses from storm surges in Florida
Siddharth Narayan, Christopher J. Thomas, Kechi Nzerem +4
Mangroves modify storm surges with impacts on property damages, but these effects vary spatially and by storm intensity. We use high-resolution, kilometer-scale flood and loss mode…
Oceanic frontal divergence alters phytoplankton competition and distribution
Abigail Plummer, Mara Freilich, Roberto Benzi +5
Ecological interactions among phytoplankton occur in a moving fluid environment. Oceanic flows can modulate the competition and coexistence between phytoplankton populations, which…
Sharp thresholds limit the benefit of defector avoidance in cooperation on networks
Ashkaan K. Fahimipour, Fanqi Zeng, Martin Homer +3
Consider a cooperation game on a spatial network of habitat patches, where players can relocate between patches if they judge the local conditions to be unfavorable. In time, the r…
Collapse of an ecological network in Ancient Egypt
Justin D. Yeakel, Mathias M. Pires, Lars Rudolf +4
The dynamics of ecosystem collapse are fundamental to determining how and why biological communities change through time, as well as the potential effects of extinctions on ecosyst…
Generalized modeling of ecological population dynamics
Justin D. Yeakel, Dirk Stiefs, Mark Novak +1
Over the past years several authors have used the approach of generalized modeling to study the dynamics of food chains and food webs. Generalized models come close to the efficien…
Implications of Aging in Bacteria
Leah R. Johnson, Marc Mangel
Motivated by recent research of aging in E. coli, we explore the effects of aging on bacterial fitness. The disposable soma theory of aging was developed to explain how differences…
