A Mathematical Theory for Optimal Marital Interactions
Henson, MicahThe study of marriage dynamics and of strategies to reduce the likelihood of divorce has beenan important research area for decades. Gottman’s [15] research on successful marriages revealed three interaction styles: ... -
Dynamics in Discrete Time: Successional Communities, Spatial Models, and Allee Effects
Gilbertson, NoraAs humans rapidly alter the environment around them, impacts such as habitat disturbances and fragmentation, range shifts, and invasions are increasingly common. In the face of these events, knowledge of population dynamics ... -
Geographic Range Shifts under Climate Warming
Zhou, Ying (2013-07-25)Rapid climate warming has caused species across the globe to shift their geographic ranges, and ecologists are increasingly concerned about whether species are able to track climate warming. Early efforts to predict species ... -
Invasions with Fat-Tailed and Long-Distance Dispersal
Liu, Benjamin REcologists have recognized fat-tailed and long-distance dispersal (LDD) as critical to our understanding of population spread and invasions; heavy- and fat-tailed kernels fit empirical dispersal data better than classical ... -
Mathematical Analysis of Host–Parasitoid Dynamics
Marcinko, KelseyHost and parasitoid systems are of great interest to ecologists, both because of the global prevalence of insect parasitoids and the impact of parasitoids in regulating their hosts. The direct connection between parasitized ... -
Optimization of Infectious-Disease Mitigation Strategies with Economic or Equity Perspectives
Stafford, ErinInfectious-disease outbreaks in human, livestock, and plant populations continue to be a problem that can affect our day-to-day lives and have broader societal implications. There- fore, the need to prevent the spread of ...
