The role of seasonal timing and phenological shifts for species coexistence

VHW Rudolf - Ecology letters, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Shifts in the phenologies of coexistence species are altering the temporal structure of natural
communities worldwide. However, predicting how these changes affect the structure and …

A process‐based metacommunity framework linking local and regional scale community ecology

PL Thompson, LM Guzman, L De Meester… - Ecology …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The metacommunity concept has the potential to integrate local and regional dynamics
within a general community ecology framework. To this end, the concept must move beyond …

How variation between individuals affects species coexistence

SP Hart, SJ Schreiber, JM Levine - Ecology letters, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Although the effects of variation between individuals within species are traditionally ignored
in studies of species coexistence, the magnitude of intraspecific variation in nature is forcing …

An empiricist's guide to modern coexistence theory for competitive communities

CM Godwin, FH Chang, BJ Cardinale - Oikos, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
While many ecological theories have historically invoked niche differences as the primary
mechanism allowing species coexistence, we now know that coexistence in competitive …

[PDF][PDF] On the dynamics of a rational difference equation, part I

AM Amleh, E Camouzis, G Ladas - Int. J. Difference Equ, 2008 - campus.mst.edu
We investigate the global stability character, the periodic nature, and the boundedness of
solutions of a rational difference equation with nonnegative parameters and with …

Grass feedbacks on fire stabilize savannas

B Beckage, LJ Gross, WJ Platt - Ecological Modelling, 2011 - Elsevier
Savannas commonly consist of a discontinuous cover of overstory trees and a groundcover
of grasses. Savanna models have previously demonstrated that vegetation feedbacks on fire …

The Ricker competition model of two species: dynamic modes and phase multistability

M Kulakov, G Neverova, E Frisman - Mathematics, 2022 - mdpi.com
The model of two species competing for a resource proposed by R. May and AP Shapiro has
not yet been fully explored. We study its dynamic modes. The model reveals complex …

When rarity has costs: coexistence under positive frequency‐dependence and environmental stochasticity

SJ Schreiber, M Yamamichi, SY Strauss - Ecology, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Stable coexistence relies on negative frequency‐dependence, in which rarer species
invading a patch benefit from a lack of conspecific competition experienced by residents. In …

Discrete evolutionary population models: a new approach

K Mokni, S Elaydi, M Ch-Chaoui… - Journal of Biological …, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
In this paper, we apply a new approach to a special class of discrete time evolution models
and establish a solid mathematical foundation to analyse them. We propose new single and …
