Decades of research in ecology have documented how these sorts of patterns are the consequences of deceptively simple rules that determine the nature of the patterns created. Chaos in Ecology will explain how simple beginnings result in complicated results. Chaos in Ecology is the inaugural volume of Theoretical Ecology Series. The authors of this volume have employed data from a proven model system in population dynamics. As a result, this book will be of interest to anyone interested in the ecology of populations. It is impossible to predict the exact behavior of almost all biological systems and yet these same systems are exemplified by patterns of complexity and regularity. Decades of research in ecology have documented that these sorts of patterns are the consequence of deceptively simple rules that determine the nature of the patterns created. In essence, simple beginnings result in complicated results. This realization is captured in the mathematical notion of "chaos" and is rendered intuitive by the oft-repeated metaphor: "A butterfly beats its wings in China and causing a thunderstorm in the Midwest." Thus, seemingly trivial initial conditions (e.g. a butterfly in China) cascade through a series of intermediate events to create a significant large-scale event (e.g. a thunderstorm).

Decades of research in ecology have documented how these sorts of patterns are the consequences of deceptively simple rules that determine the nature of the patterns created. Chaos in Ecology will explain how simple beginnings result in complicated results. Chaos in Ecology is the inaugural volume of Theoretical Ecology Series. The authors of this volume have employed data from a proven model system in population dynamics. As a result, this book will be of interest to anyone interested in the ecology of populations. It is impossible to predict the exact behavior of almost all biological systems and yet these same systems are exemplified by patterns of complexity and regularity. Decades of research in ecology have documented that these sorts of patterns are the consequence of deceptively simple rules that determine the nature of the patterns created. In essence, simple beginnings result in complicated results. This realization is captured in the mathematical notion of "chaos" and is rendered intuitive by the oft-repeated metaphor: "A butterfly beats its wings in China and causing a thunderstorm in the Midwest." Thus, seemingly trivial initial conditions (e.g. a butterfly in China) cascade through a series of intermediate events to create a significant large-scale event (e.g. a thunderstorm). Chaos in Ecology is the inaugural volume of Theoretical Ecology Series. The authors of this volume have employed data from a proven model system in population dynamics. As a result, this book will be of interest to anyone interested in the ecology of populations Introduction. -- Models. -- Bifurcations. -- Chaos. -- Patterns in Chaos. -- What We Learned. -- Bibliography. -- Appendix Includes bibliographical references (p. 183-193) Écologie / Modèles mathématiques Biologie des populations / Modèles mathématiques Chaos Théories non linéaires Chaos gtt Populatiedynamica gtt Wiskundige modellen gtt Caos (sistemas dinâmicos) larpcal Ecologia de populações larpcal Modelos matemáticos larpcal SCIENCE / Environmental Science (see also Chemistry / Environmental) bisacsh NATURE / Ecosystems & Habitats / Wilderness bisacsh NATURE / Ecology bisacsh SCIENCE / Life Sciences / Ecology bisacsh Chaotic behavior in systems fast Ecology / Mathematical models fast Nonlinear theories fast Population biology / Mathematical models fast Mathematisches Modell Ökologie Ecology Mathematical models Population biology Mathematical models Chaotic behavior in systems Nonlinear theories Nichtlineare Theorie (DE-588)4251279-7 gnd rswk-swf Ökologie (DE-588)4043207-5 gnd rswk-swf Mathematisches Modell (DE-588)4114528-8 gnd rswk-swf Populationsbiologie (DE-588)4046800-8 gnd rswk-swf Chaotisches System (DE-588)4316104-2 gnd rswk-swf Ökologie (DE-588)4043207-5 s Mathematisches Modell (DE-588)4114528-8 s Chaotisches System (DE-588)4316104-2 s Nichtlineare Theorie (DE-588)4251279-7 s 1\p DE-604 Populationsbiologie (DE-588)4046800-8 s 2\p DE-604 Cushing, J.
