Short-term instabilities and long-term community dynamics
Competition in a temporally variable environment leads to sequences of short-term instabilities that in some cases are the mechanism of long-term coexistence; in other cases the...
The Roles of Harsh and Fluctuating Conditions in the Dynamics of Ecological Communities
Harsh conditions (e.g., mortality and stress) reduce population growth rates directly; secondarily, they may reduce the intensity of interactions between organisms. Near-exclusi...
Temporal variation, dormancy, and coexistence: A field test of the storage effect
Theoretical models suggest that overlapping generations, in combination with a temporally fluctuating environment, may allow the persistence of competitors that otherwise would ...
Predator-Mediated Coexistence: A Nonequilibrium Model
There is now convincing evidence, from a variety of ecological systems, that predation is capable of maintaining coexistence among a set of competing prey species, some of which...
Limit Cycles in Competition Communities
A three-species Lotka-Volterra competition community may exhibit population oscillations of a neutral or undamped nature. Nontransitive interference competition, in which 1 can ...
