A scale-invariant model of marine population dynamics
A striking feature of the marine ecosystem is the regularity in its size spectrum: the abundance of organisms as a function of their weight approximately follows a power law over almost ten orders of magnitude. We interpret this as evidence that the population dynamics in the ocean is approximately scale-invariant. We use this invariance in the construction and solution of a size-structured dyn...

A striking feature of the marine ecosystem is the regularity in its size spectrum: the abundance of organisms as a function of their weight approximately follows a power law over almost ten orders of magnitude. We interpret this as evidence that the population dynamics in the ocean is approximately scale-invariant. We use this invariance in the construction and solution of a size-structured dyn...
متن کاملScale-invariant Gravity: Particle Dynamics
A new and universal method for implementing scale invariance, called best matching, is presented. It extends to scaling the method introduced by Bertotti and the author to create a fully relational dynamics that satisfies Mach’s principle. The method is illustrated here in the context of non-relativistic gravitational particle dynamics. It leads to far stronger predictions than general Newtonia...
متن کاملdynamics and bifurcations of a lotka-volterra population model
this paper investigates the dynamics and stability properties of a discrete-time lotka-volterra type system. we first analyze stability of the fixed points and the existence of local bifurcations. our analysis shows the presence of rich variety of local bifurcations, namely, stable fixed points; in which population numbers remain constant, periodic cycles; in which population numbers oscillate amo...
متن کاملSmall-Scale Spatial Variation in Population Dynamics and Fishermen Response in a Coastal Marine Fishery
A major challenge for small-scale fisheries management is high spatial variability in the demography and life history characteristics of target species. Implementation of local management actions that can reduce overfishing and maximize yields requires quantifying ecological heterogeneity at small spatial scales and is therefore limited by available resources and data. Collaborative fisheries r...
