Stage-structured matrix models for organisms with non-geometric development times.
Matrix models have been used to model population growth of organisms for many decades. They are popular because of both their conceptual simplicity and their computational efficiency. For some types of organisms they are relatively accurate in predicting population growth; however, for others the matrix approach does not adequately model growth rate. One of the reasons for the lack of accuracy ...
متن کاملBernoulli matrix approach for matrix differential models of first-order
The current paper contributes a novel framework for solving a class of linear matrix differential equations. To do so, the operational matrix of the derivative based on the shifted Bernoulli polynomials together with the collocation method are exploited to reduce the main problem to system of linear matrix equations. An error estimation of presented method is provided. Numerical experiments are...
متن کاملExtinction Criteria in Stage-Structured Population Models with Impulsive Culling
We propose stage-structured population models for species whose adult members are subject to culling, with a view to understanding the culling regimes that are likely to result in eradication of the species. A purely time-dependent model is proposed in which culling occurs at particular discrete times, not necessarily equally spaced. Then a reaction-diffusion model is proposed for a situation i...
متن کاملDynamics of Stage-structured Population Models with Harvesting Pulses
In most models of population dynamics, changes in population due to birth or harvesting are assumed to be time-independent, but many species reproduce or are caught only during a single period of the year. In this paper a single species stage-structured model with density-dependent maturation rate, birth pulse and harvesting pulse is formulated. Using the discrete dynamical system determined by...
متن کاملConstructing stage-structured matrix population models from life tables: comparison of methods
A matrix population model is a convenient tool for summarizing per capita survival and reproduction rates (collectively vital rates) of a population and can be used for calculating an asymptotic finite population growth rate (λ) and generation time. These two pieces of information can be used for determining the status of a threatened species. The use of stage-structured population models has i...
