How predator functional responses and Allee effects in prey affect the paradox of enrichment and population collapses
In Rosenzweig–MacArthur models of predator–prey dynamics, Allee effects in prey usually
destabilize interior equilibria and can suppress or enhance limit cycles typical of the paradox …
