Self-organized vegetation patterns promote persistence of plant-pollinator mutualisms under environmental stress

Matheus Bongestab, David Pinto-Ramos, Ricardo Martinez-Garcia

Mutualisms are key for structuring ecological communities, but they are sensitive to environmental change and fluctuations in population size. Consequently, how mutualisms achieve…

Investigating Mobility in Spatial Biodiversity Models through Recurrence Quantification Analysis

M. S. Palmero, M. Bongestab, N. Marwan

Recurrence plots and their associated quantifiers provide a robust framework for detecting and characterising complex patterns in non-linear time-series. In this paper, we employ r…

Quantifying scale-free behaviors in Rock-Paper-Scissors Models as a function of Mobility

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, M. J. B. Ferreira +2

We investigate the scale-free behavior of the spatial rock-paper-scissors model with May-Leonard dynamics, analyzing specific quantifiers that engender the power-law feature. The m…

Chaotic behavior in Lotka-Volterra and May-Leonard models of biodiversity

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, B. F. de Oliveira

Quantification of chaos is a challenging issue in complex dynamical systems. In this paper, we discuss the chaotic properties of generalized Lotka-Volterra and May-Leonard models o…

Effects of a pestilent species on the stability of cyclically dominant species

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, B. F. de Oliveira +1

Cyclic dominance is frequently believed to be a mechanism that maintains diversity of competing species. But this delicate balance could also be fragile if some of the members is w…

Influence of the neighborhood on cyclic models of biodiversity

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, B. F. de Oliveira

This work deals with the influence of the neighborhood in simple rock-paper-scissors models of biodiversity. We consider the case of three distinct species which evolve under the s…
