dissect the model
look for pieces that work on their own
2. Steady state, but with species, not individuals
island biogeography (link)
Data collection from across many sizes of islands in an archepelego shows range constant change in ratio.
predator prey model
courses/stella/predator-prey
(you will be constructing and working with this model in lab)
prey growth rate determined by Logistic equation (carrying capacity and intrinsic r)
predator growth rate determined by
carrying capacity and
predator * prey (related to the chance that they collide)
harvest efficiency (proportion of collisions that result in predator eating prey)
looks sort of like this
it's possible for this to reach a steady state
It's also possible that other behaviors are exhibited.
