Quantifying the transient response of ecological-economic systems to perturbations
Ecologists and economists are increasingly in agreement that ecological and economic systems are linked and that these actually should be viewed as one system. Perhaps because this recognition has been very recent, neither ecologists nor economists have studied the short-term behavior of jointly determined ecologicaleconomic systems that are subject to perturbations stemming from natural events...
متن کاملReactivity and transient dynamics of discrete-time ecological systems
Most studies of ecological models focus exclusively on the asymptotic stability properties of equilibria. However, short-term transient effects can be important, and can in some cases dominate the dynamics seen in experimental or field studies. The reactivity of a stable equilibrium point measures the potential for short-term amplification of perturbations. The reactivity of a fixed point in a ...
متن کاملConstruction of strict Lyapunov function for nonlinear parameterised perturbed systems
In this paper, global uniform exponential stability of perturbed dynamical systems is studied by using Lyapunov techniques. The system presents a perturbation term which is bounded by an integrable function with the assumption that the nominal system is globally uniformly exponentially stable. Some examples in dimensional two are given to illustrate the applicability of the main results.
متن کاملPredicting ecological connectivity in urbanizing landscapes
Nearly half the world's population lives in urban centers, and these areas are increasingly important components of regional and global land cover. However, their ecological attributes are often overlooked, despite the presence of species, ecosystem services, and risks associated with the spread of pests or threatening processes such as fire. Movement and dispersal of organisms contribute to sp...
متن کاملEcological Networks in Fisheries: Predicting the Future?
76 The theme for the 142nd annual meeting of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) was “Fisheries Networks: Building Ecological, Social, and Professional Relationships,” and that provided me a hook to reflect on how studies of ecological networks have developed and how they can be used to inform fisheries research. Ecological networks, as we know them, date back to the pioneering studies of Raym...
