  1. 1. Evolutionary consequences of ecological interactions

    Författare :Etsuko Nonaka; Åke Brännström; Göran Englund; Richard Svanbäck; Per Lundberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptive dynamics; eco-evolutionary dynamics; ecological speciation; ecosystem; individual based; population dynamics; phenotypic plasticity; predator-prey; sexual selection;

    Sammanfattning : Eco-evolutionary dynamics integrates the reciprocal interactions betweenecology and evolution. These two branches of biology traditionally assumethe other as static for simplicity. However, increasing evidence shows thatthis simplification may not always hold because ecology and evolution canoperate in similar timescales. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Art of Modelling Oscillations and Feedback across Biological Scales

    Författare :Linnéa Gyllingberg; David J. T. Sumpter; Helen Byrne; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mathematical biology; mathematical modelling; oscillations; feedback mechanisms; dynamical systems; individual-based models; complex systems; Tillämpad matematik och statistik; Applied Mathematics and Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers in the field of mathematical biology. All papers aim to advance our understanding of biological systems through the development and application of innovative mathematical models. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mathematical models of biological interactions

    Författare :Linnéa Gyllingberg; David J.T. Sumpter; Kolbjörn Tunström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

    Sammanfattning : Mathematical models are used to describe and analyse different types of biological interactions.  From self-propelled particle models capturing the collective motion of fish schools to models in mathematical neuroscience describing the interactions between neurons to individual-based models of ecological interactions.

  5. 4. Understanding Mobility and Transport Modal Disparities Using Emerging Data Sources: Modelling Potentials and Limitations

    Författare :Yuan Liao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; data mining; geographical information systems; mobility models; big trip data; transport modes; traffic data; social media data;

    Sammanfattning : Transportation presents a major challenge to curb climate change due in part to its ever-increasing travel demand. Better informed policy-making requires up-to-date empirical mobility data to model viable mitigation options for reducing emissions from the transport sector. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modelling animal populations

    Författare :Åke Brännström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :population model; stochastic population model; population dynamics; discrete time model; Beverton-Holt model; Skellam model; Hassell model; Ricker model; first principles; coupled map lattice; CML; area integral; square function; Mathematics; matematik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers, three papers about modelling animal populations and one paper about an area integral estimate for solutions of partial differential equations on non-smooth domains. The papers are: I. Å. Brännström, Single species population models from first principles. LÄS MER
