The ghost of ecology in chaos, combining intransitive and higher order effects
John Vandermeer, Ivette Perfecto
Historically, musings about the structure of ecological communities has revolved around the structure of pairwise interactions, competition, predation, mutualism, etc. . . Recently…
The interplay of extinction and synchrony in the dynamics of metapopulation formation
John Vandermeer, Zachary Hajian-Forooshani
The idea of a metapopulation has become canonical in ecology. Its original mean field form provides the important intuition that migration and extinction interact to determine the…
New forms of structure in ecosystems revealed with the Kuramoto model
John Vandermeer, Zachary Hajian-Forooshani, Nicholas Medina +1
Ecological systems, as is often noted, are complex. Equally notable is the generalization that complex systems tend to be oscillatory, whether Huygens simple patterns of pendulum e…
Some elementary mechanisms for critical transitions and hysteresis in simple predator prey models
John Vandermeer
Trait-mediated indirect effects are increasingly acknowledged as important components in the dynamics of ecological systems. The hamiltonian form of the LV equations is traditional…
Spatial pattern and power function deviation in a cellular automata model of an ant population
John Vandermeer, Doug Jackson
A spatially explicit model previously developed to apply to a population of arboreal nesting ants in southern Mexico is explored in detail, including notions of criticality and rob…
Local dynamics of the coffee rust disease and the potential effect of shade
John Vandermeer, Pej Rohani, Ivette Perfecto
In this paper we present a mode that incorporates two levels of dynamic structuring of the coffee rust disease (caused by the rust fungus, Hemileia vastatrix). First, two distinct…
Some complications of the elementary forms of competition in a source/sink and metacommunity context: the role of intranstive loops
John Vandermeer
Dynamic interspecific interactions are thought to contribute to fundamental structures of ecological communities. Using the Yodzis framework of dominance control versus founder con…
