Optimal Harvesting for a Predator–Prey Metapopulation
In this paper we present a deterministic, discrete-time model for a two-patch predator–prey metapopulation. We study optimal harvesting for the metapopulation using dynamic programming. Some rules are established as generalizations of rules for a single-species metapopulation harvesting theory. We also establish rules to harvest relatively more (or less) vulnerable prey subpopulations and more ...
متن کاملPredator-Prey Interactions, Age Structures and Delay Equations
A general framework for age-structured predator-prey systems is introduced. Individuals are distinguished into two classes, juveniles and adults, and several possible interactions are considered. The initial system of partial differential equations is reduced to a system of (neutral) delay differential equations with one or two delays. Thanks to this approach, physically correct models for pred...
متن کاملPersistence in a Generalized Prey-Predator Model with Prey Reserve
This paper deals with the study of a generalized prey-predator system with a reserve area. It is assumed that the habitat is divided into two regions, namely free zone and the other is reserved zone where predation is not allowed. The migration rate of prey population from free zone to reserved zone is predator density dependent. Predator functional response is considered as Holling type II. Bo...
متن کاملMolecular Tracking of Arthropod Predator-Prey Interactions
Local generalist predators can be exploited in conservation biological control of agricultural pests. To conserve and promote the most important predators, it is critical to have detailed knowledge about their prey range under natural conditions. I have studied predator-prey interactions between lycosid spiders from the genus Pardosa and a major aphid pest in spring-sown cereals; Rhopalosiphum ...
متن کاملPredator prey interactions with time delays.
A general (Volterra-Lotka type) integrodifferential system which describes a predator-prey interaction subject to delay effects is considered. A rather complete picture is drawn of certain qualitative aspects of the solutions as they are functions of the parameters in the system. Namely, it is argued that such systems have, roughly speaking, the following features. If the carrying capacity of t...
