Land use/land cover dynamics on vulnerable regions in Uruguay approached by a method combining Maximum Entropy and Population Dynamics
Johny Arteaga, Jhonny Agudelo, Alejandro Brazeiro +1
We present an exploratory population dynamics approach, described by Lotka-Volterra (LV) generalized equations, to explain/predict the dynamics and competition between land use/lan…
Joint assessment of density correlations and fluctuations for analysing spatial tree patterns
P. Villegas, A. Cavagna, M. Cencini +2
Inferring the processes underlying the emergence of observed patterns is a key challenge in theoretical ecology. Much effort has been made in the past decades to collect extensive…
Quantitative predictions from competition theory with incomplete information on model parameters tested against experiments across diverse taxa
Hugo Fort
We derive an analytical approximation for making quantitative predictions for ecological communities as a function of the mean intensity of the inter-specific competition and the s…
The Clumping Transition in Niche Competition: a Robust Critical Phenomenon
H. Fort, M. Scheffer, E. van Nes
We show analytically and numerically that the appearance of lumps and gaps in the distribution of n competing species along a niche axis is a robust phenomenon whenever the finiten…
Viral quasispecies profiles as the result of the interplay of competition and cooperation
Juan Arbiza, Santiago Mirazo, Hugo Fort
Viral quasispecies can be regarded as a swarm of genetically related mutants or a quasispecies (QS). A common formalism to approach QS is the replicator-mutator equation (RME). How…
Catastrophic Phase Transitions and Early Warnings in a Spatial Ecological Model
Ariel Fernandez, Hugo Fort
Gradual changes in exploitation, nutrient loading, etc. produce shifts between alternative stable states (ASS) in ecosystems which, quite often, are not smooth but abrupt or catast…
