Attenuant cycles in periodically forced discrete-time age-structured population models
In discrete-time age-structured population models, a periodic environment is not always deleterious. We show that it is possible to have the average of the age class populations over an attracting cycle (in a periodic environment) not less than the average of the carrying capacities (in a corresponding constant environment). In our age-structured model, a periodic environment does not increase ...
متن کاملPredicting attenuant and resonant 2-cycles in periodically forced discrete-time two-species population models.
Periodic environments may either enhance or suppress a population via resonant or attenuant cycles. We derive signature functions for predicting the responses of two competing populations to 2-periodic oscillations in six model parameters. Two of these parameters provide a non-trivial equilibrium and two provide the carrying capacities of each species in the absence of the other, but the remain...
متن کاملMultiple attractors and resonance in periodically forced population models
Oscillating discrete autonomous dynamical systems admit multiple oscillatory solutions in the advent of periodic forcing. The multiple cycles are out of phase, and some of their averages may resonate with the forcing amplitude while others attenuate. In application to population biology, populations with stable inherent oscillations in constant habitats are predicted to develop multiple attract...
متن کاملChaos in Discrete Structured Population Models
We prove analytically the existence of chaotic dynamics in some classical discrete-time age-structured population models. Our approach allows us to estimate the sensitive dependence on the initial conditions, regions of initial data with chaotic behavior, and explicit ranges of parameters for which the considered models display chaos. These properties have important implications for evaluating ...
متن کاملAsymptotic behavior and effective boundaries for age-structured population models in a periodically changing environment
Human activity and other events can cause environmental changes to the habitat of organisms. The environmental changes effect the vital rates for a population. In order to predict the impact of these environmental changes on populations, we use two different models for population dynamics. One simpler linear model that ignores environmental competition between individuals and another model that...
