A graphical theory of competition on spatial resource gradients.
Resource competition is a fundamental interaction in natural communities. However, little remains known about competition in spatial environments where organisms are able to regulate resource distributions. Here, we analyse the competition of two consumers for two resources in a one-dimensional habitat in which the resources are supplied from opposite sides. We show that the success of an invad...
متن کاملA graphical-mechanistic approach to spatial resource competition.
Ecological communities are structured by processes operating at multiple spatial scales, which results in an often daunting complexity. Here we present a simple graphical theory to study the interaction of two fundamental community processes: resource competition at the local scale and dispersal at the regional scale. We consider a metacommunity model with two habitat patches in which consumer ...
متن کاملClassical and resource-based competition: a unifying graphical approach.
A graphical technique is given for determining the outcome of two species competition for two resources. This method is unifying in the sense that the graphical criterion leading to the various outcomes of competition are consistent across most of the spectrum of resource types (from those that fulfill the same growth needs to those that fulfill different needs) regardless of the classification...
متن کاملOn spatial power gradients
The variation of the instantaneous power versus distance for a narrowband channel is an important parameter in modern digital systems, relevant for variations during a burst and for power control algorithms. This paper gives the statistical distribution for the power gradient, both in decibels and in natural units for a Rayleigh fading channel. The former has been known for some time to be Stud...
متن کاملTHE RESOURCE . . ADVANTAGE THEORY OF COMPETITION A Review
Since its original conceptualization in Hunt and Morgan (1995), the theory ojcompetition known as resource-advantage (R-A) theory has been developed in numerous articles, books, and book chapters in the marketing, management/general business, and economics literatures. This article reviews the progress and prospects ofR-A theory. Specifically, it: (1) provides a brief overview of R-A theory, (2...
