Continuation of fixed points and bifurcations from ODE to flow-kick disturbance models
Katherine Meyer, Horace Fusco, Collin Smith +1
Some ODE models treat ecological disturbance as a continuous process, even disturbances such as fire that occur almost instantaneously on the timescale of system recovery. Alternat…
Nitrogen-induced hysteresis in grassland biodiversity: a theoretical test of litter-mediated mechanisms
Katherine Meyer, James Broda, Andrew Brettin +6
The global rise in anthropogenic reactive nitrogen (N) and the negative impacts of N deposition on terrestrial plant diversity are well-documented. The R* theory of resource compet…
Intensity -- A Metric Approach to Quantifying Attractor Robustness in ODEs
Katherine J. Meyer, Richard P. McGehee
Although mathematical models do not fully match reality, robustness of dynamical objects to perturbation helps bridge from theoretical to real-world dynamical systems. Classical th…
Extinction debt repayment via timely habitat restoration
Katherine Meyer
Habitat destruction threatens the viability of many populations, but its full consequences can take considerable time to unfold. Much of the discourse surrounding extinction debts-…
Quantifying resilience to recurrent ecosystem disturbances using flow-kick dynamics
Katherine Meyer, Alanna Hoyer-Leitzel, Sarah Iams +5
Shifting ecosystem disturbance patterns due to climate change (e.g. storms, droughts, wildfires) or direct human interference (e.g. harvests, nutrient loading) highlight the import…
A Dynamical Systems Framework for Resilience in Ecology
Katherine Meyer
Rising interest in the resilience of ecological systems has spawned diverse interpretations of the term's precise meaning. This paper classifies and explores definitions of resilie…
