A solution to the evolution-related Truscott-Brindley model for the generalized phytoplankton-zooplankton populations
Phytoplankton are tiny floating plants (algae) living in oceans. In the process of photosynthesis, phytoplankton produces half of the world's oxygen. Moreover, by primary production, death and sinking, they transport carbon from the ocean's surface layer to marine sediments. There are many species of phytoplankton that can be distinguished according to morphology. In this paper, we investigate ...
متن کاملWell-temperate phage: optimal bet-hedging against local environmental collapses
Upon infection of their bacterial hosts temperate phages must chose between lysogenic and lytic developmental strategies. Here we apply the game-theoretic bet-hedging strategy introduced by Kelly to derive the optimal lysogenic fraction of the total population of phages as a function of frequency and intensity of environmental downturns affecting the lytic subpopulation. "Well-temperate" phage ...
متن کاملGrowth Collapses
We study episodes where economic growth decelerates to negative rates. While the majority of these episodes are of short duration, a substantial fraction last for a longer period of time than can be explained as the result of businesscycle dynamics. The duration, depth and associated output loss of these episodes differs dramatically across regions. We investigate the factors associated with th...
متن کاملCollapses and Watersheds in Pseudomanifolds
This work is settled in the framework of abstract simplicial complexes. We propose a definition of a watershed and of a collapse for maps defined on pseudomanifolds of arbitrary dimension. Through an equivalence theorem, we establish a deep link between these two notions: any watershed can be obtained by collapse iterated until idempotence, and conversely any collapse iterated until idempotence...
متن کاملEffect of demographic noise in a phytoplankton-zooplankton model of bloom dynamics.
An extension of the Truscott-Brindley model [Bull. Math. Biol. 56, 981 (1994)] is derived to account for the effect of demographic fluctuations. In the presence of seasonal forcing and sufficiently shallow water conditions, the fluctuations induced by the discreteness of the zooplankton component appear sufficient to cause switching between the bloom and no-bloom cycles predicted at the mean-fi...
