Spatially Explicit Population Models
During the last decade, ecologists and particularly mathematical ecologists have focused on different approaches to the problem of spatial distribution of species. When the spatial distribution is not considered explicitly, the mathematical models are called spatially implicit. They consider the proportion of territory occupied by given species, but there is no information on which particular s...

متن کاملInferring past demography using spatially explicit population genetic models.
Inferring the past demography of human populations has been classically approached through data from the archaeological record but more recently by the use of genetic data from contemporary samples. Building realistic demographic models at the continental scale is a necessary step toward the improvement of current genomic methods aimed at finding genes under selection. In light of recent advanc...
متن کاملPowerful Statistical Inference for Nested Data Using Sufficient Summary Statistics
Hierarchically-organized data arise naturally in many psychology and neuroscience studies. As the standard assumption of independent and identically distributed samples does not hold for such data, two important problems are to accurately estimate group-level effect sizes, and to obtain powerful statistical tests against group-level null hypotheses. A common approach is to summarize subject-lev...
متن کاملPair statistics clarify percolation properties of spatially explicit simulations.
Dispersal is a fundamental control on the spatial structure of a population. We investigate the precise mechanism by which a mixed strategy of short- and long-distance dispersal affects spatial patterning. Using techniques from pair approximation and percolation theory, we demonstrate that dispersal controls the extent to which a population is completely connected by modulating the proportion o...
