  1. 1. A bivariate model for predator-prey interaction

    Författare :Irene Isaksson-Hellman; Göteborgs universitet; []

  3. 2. Get a grip on chaos : Tailored measures for complex systems on surfaces

    Författare :Sascha Firle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; complex systems; chaos; predator prey; movement models; functional response; spatial heterogeneity; topological dynamics; braid template; homoclinic bifurcations; Kvantkemi; Quantum chemistry; Kvantkemi; Quantum Chemistry; kvantkemi;

    Sammanfattning : Complex systems are ubiquitous in physics, biology and mathematics. This thesis is concerned with describing and understanding complex systems. Some new concepts about how large systems can be viewed in a lower dimensional framework are proposed. The systems presented are examples from ecology and chemistry. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of warming and nutrient enrichment on feeding behavior, population stability and persistence of consumers and their resources

    Författare :Wojciech Uszko; Sebastian Diehl; Lennart Persson; David Vasseur; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; consumer-resource; Daphnia; functional response; nutrient enrichment; parameter estimation; persistence; plankton; predator-prey; stability; temperature; type II; type III; warming;

    Sammanfattning : Consumer-resource interactions are the basic building blocks of every food web. In spite of being a central research theme of longstanding interest in ecology, the mechanisms governing the stability and persistence of consumer-resource interactions are still not entirely understood.

  5. 4. Predator effects on behaviour and life-history of prey

    Författare :Tomas Brodin; Frank Johansson; Bradley Anholt; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; activity; behaviour; behavioural syndromes; damselfly; development; growth; life-history; predator-prey interaction; predation risk; thinning; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I investigate predator-induced effects on behavioural and life-history characteristics of prey. At any moment a given predator is capable of attacking a small number of prey. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Antipredator defence in butterflies

    Författare :Martin Olofsson; Christer Wiklund; Graeme Ruxton; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antipredator defence; Bird; Crypsis; Predator; Predator-prey interaction; Prey-attack behavior; Butterfly; Deimatic behavior; Eyespots; Startle display; zoologisk ekologi; Animal Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Predation exerts a potent selection mechanism and has resulted in a suite of antipredation adaptations encompassing morphological and behavioral traits in prey. In butterflies, several such traits appear to be directed towards birds which are considered as one of their major predators. LÄS MER
