Antibiotic treatment, duration of infectiousness, and disease transmission
Thomas Caraco
Humans, domestic animals, orchard crops, and ornamental plants are commonly treated with antibiotics in response to bacterial infection. By curing infectious individuals, antibioti…
Antibiotics, duration of infectiousness, and transmission of disease
Thomas Caraco
Humans, domestic animals, orchard crops, and ornamental plants are commonly treated with antibiotics in response to bacterial infection. By curing infectious individuals, antibioti…
Dispersal limitation and roughening of the ecological interface
Andrew J. Allstadt, Jonathan A. Newman, Jonathan A. Walter +2
Limited dispersal distance, whether associated with vegetative growth or localized reproduction, induces spatial clustering and, in turn, focuses ecological interactions at the nei…
Restoration Ecology: Two-Sex Dynamics and Cost Minimization
F. Molnar, C. Caragine, T. Caraco +1
We model a spatially detailed, two-sex population dynamics, to study the cost of ecological restoration. We assume that cost is proportional to the number of individuals introduced…
Extraordinary Sex Ratios: Cultural Effects on Ecological Consequences
F. Molnar, T. Caraco, G. Korniss
We model sex-structured population dynamics to analyze pairwise competition between groups differing both genetically and culturally. A sex-ratio allele is expressed in the heterog…
Interference competition and invasion: spatial structure, novel weapons and resistance zones
Andrew Allstadt, Thomas Caraco, F. Molnar +1
Certain invasive plants may rely on interference mechanisms (allelopathy, e.g.) to gain competitive superiority over native species. But expending resources on interference presuma…
Spatial competition and the dynamics of rarity in a temporally varying environment
Lauren O'Malley, G. Korniss, Sai Satya Praveen Mungara +1
Given an endogenous timescale set by invasion in a constant environment, we introduced periodic temporal variation in competitive superiority by alternating the species' propagatio…
Ecological Invasion, Roughened Fronts, and a Competitor's Extreme Advance: Integrating Stochastic Spatial-Growth Models
Lauren O'Malley, G. Korniss, Thomas Caraco
Both community ecology and conservation biology seek further understanding of factors governing the advance of an invasive species. We model biological invasion as an individual-ba…
Fisher Waves and Front Roughening in a Two-Species Invasion Model with Preemptive Competition
L. O'Malley, B. Kozma, G. Korniss +2
We study front propagation when an invading species competes with a resident; we assume nearest-neighbor preemptive competition for resources in an individual-based, two-dimensiona…
Fisher Waves and the Velocity of Front Propagation in a Two-Species Invasion Model with Preemptive Competition
L. O'Malley, B. Kozma, G. Korniss +2
We consider an individual-based two-dimensional spatial model with nearest-neighbor preemptive competition to study front propagation between an invader and a resident species. In…
Invasive advance of an advantageous mutation: nucleation theory
Lauren O'Malley, James Basham, Joseph A. Yasi +3
For most organisms with viscous population structure, spatially localized growth drives the invasive advance of a favorable mutation. We model a two-allele competition where recurr…
