Resilience, reactivity and variability : A mathematical comparison of ecological stability measures
Jean-François Arnoldi, Michel Loreau, Bart Haegeman
In theoretical studies, the most commonly used measure of ecological stability is resilience: ecosystems asymptotic rate of return to equilibrium after a pulse-perturbation or s…
General relationships between consumer dispersal, resource dispersal and metacommunity diversity
Bart Haegeman, Michel Loreau
One of the central questions of metacommunity theory is how dispersal of organisms affects species diversity. Here we show that the diversity-dispersal relationship should not be s…
Predicting coexistence of plants subject to a tolerance-competition trade-off
Bart Haegeman, Tewfik Sari, Rampal S. Etienne
Ecological trade-offs between species are often invoked to explain species coexistence in ecological communities. However, few mathematical models have been proposed for which coex…
Robust estimation of microbial diversity in theory and in practice
Bart Haegeman, Jérôme Hamelin, John Moriarty +3
Quantifying diversity is of central importance for the study of structure, function and evolution of microbial communities. The estimation of microbial diversity has received renew…
An effective model for flocculating bacteria with density-dependent growth dynamics
Bart Haegeman, Claude Lobry, Jerome Harmand
We present a model for a biological reactor in which bacteria tend to aggregate in flocs, as encountered in wastewater treatment plants. The influence of this flocculation on the g…
