Fluctuating growth rate and spatial diffusion shape plankton diversity
Giorgio Vittorio Visco, Kobe Simoens, Emanuele Pigani +4
Planktonic communities exhibit ubiquitous population distributions and patchy spatial structures, yet the fundamental mechanisms driving them remain debated. Here, we derive these…
Dispersal diversity buffers species vulnerability to local extinction
Davide Bernardi, Giorgio Nicoletti, Prajwal Padmanabha +5
Predicting species persistence within ecological communities is a fundamental challenge for both empirical and theoretical ecology. Existing methods span from mechanistic models, w…
Pathogen diversity emerging from coevolutionary dynamics in interconnected systems
Davide Zanchetta, Vittoria Bettio, Sandro Azaele +1
The spread of infectious disease and the evolution of antigenically distinct strains are often modeled separately, despite strong feedbacks mediated by host immune memory and heter…
Habitat heterogeneity and dispersal network structure as drivers of metacommunity dynamics
Davide Bernardi, Alice Doimo, Giorgio Nicoletti +5
Spatial structure and species interactions jointly shape the dynamics and biodiversity of ecological systems, yet most theoretical models either neglect spatial heterogeneity or sa…
Unraveling the temporal dependence of ecological interaction measures
Javier Aguilar, Samir Suweis, Amos Maritan +1
Identifying the network of species interactions is a fundamental step toward understanding ecosystem stability and biodiversity. However, the interpretability of empirical interact…
Generalized Lotka-Volterra systems with quenched random interactions and saturating nonlinear response
Marco Zenari, Francesco Ferraro, Sandro Azaele +2
The generalized Lotka-Volterra (GLV) equations with quenched random interactions have been extensively used to investigate the stability and dynamics of complex ecosystems. However…
