Résumé
Elements of Mathematical Ecology provides an introduction
to classical and modern mathematical models, methods, and
issues in population ecology. The first part of the book is
devoted to simple, unstructured population models that, for
the sake of tractability, ignore much of the variability
found in natural populations. Topics covered include
density dependence, bifurcations, demographic
stochasticity, time delays, population interactions
(predation, competition, and mutualism), and the
application of optimal control theory to the management of
renewable resources. The second part of this book is
devoted to structured population models, covering spatially
structured population models (with a focus on
reaction-diffusion models), age-structured models, and
two-sex models. Suitable for upper level students and
beginning researchers in ecology, mathematical biology and
applied mathematics, the volume includes numerous line
diagrams that clarify the mathematics, relevant problems
throughout the text that aid understanding, and
supplementary mathematical and historical material that
enrich the main text.
