چکیده

We consider a size-structured population model with discontinuous reproduction and feedback through the environmental variable \substrate". The model admits solutions with nitely many cohorts and in that case the problem is described by a system of ODEs involving a bifurcation parameter. Existence of nontrivial periodic n-cohort solutions is investigated. Moreover, we discuss the question whether n cohorts (n 2) with small size diierences will tend to a periodic one-cohort solution as t ! 1.

Permanence and Uniformly Asymptotic Stability of Almost Periodic Positive Solutions for a Dynamic Commensalism Model on Time Scales

In this paper, we study dynamic commensalism model with nonmonotic functional response, density dependent birth rates on time scales and derive sufficient conditions for the permanence. We also establish the existence and uniform asymptotic stability of unique almost periodic positive solution of the model by using Lyapunov functional method.

Frequency responses of age-structured populations: Pacific salmon as an example.

Increasing evidence of the effects of changing climate on physical ocean conditions and long-term changes in fish populations adds to the need to understand the effects of stochastic forcing on marine populations. Cohort resonance is of particular interest because it involves selective sensitivity to specific time scales of environmental variability, including that of mean age of reproduction, ...

Stability in a Nonlinear Population Maturation Model

We consider models for population structured by maturation/maturation speed proposed by Rotenberg. It is a variant of transport equations for age-structured populations which presents particularly interesting mathematical difficulties. It allows one to introduce more stochasticity in the birth process and in the aging phenomena. We present a new method for studying the time asymptotics which is...

Sensitivity Equations for a Size-Structured Population Model

In this paper we consider the classical Sinko-Streifer size-structured population model and derive sensitivity partial differential equations for the sensitivities of solutions with respect to initial conditions, growth rate, mortality rate and fecundity rate. Sample numerical results to illustrate use of these equations are also presented.

Periodic solution for a delay nonlinear population equation with feedback control and periodic external source

In this paper, sufficient conditions are investigated for the existence of periodic (not necessarily positive) solutions for nonlinear several time delay population system with feedback control. Nonlinear system affected by an periodic external source is studied. Existence of a control variable provides  the extension of  some previous results obtained in other studies. We give a illustrative e...
