Bat population dynamics: multilevel model based on individuals' energetics by Paula Federico, Dobromir T. Dimitrov, Gary F. McCracken

“…A structured population model based on extended McKendrick-von Foerster partial differential equations integrates those individual dynamics and provides insight into possible regulatory mechanisms of population size as well as conditions of population survival and extinction. Though parameterized for a specific bat species, all modeling components can be modified to investigate other bats with similar life histories. …”

Assessing the Role of Particles in Radiative Heat Transfer during Oxy-Combustion of Coal and Biomass Blends by Gautham Krishnamoorthy, Caitlyn Wolf

“…In addition, particle swelling and the diameter intervals also influenced the incident radiative fluxes primarily by impacting the particle extinction coefficients. This study highlights the necessity for careful selection of particle radiative property, and diameter interval parameters and the need for fuel fragmentation models to adequately predict the fly ash PSD in CFD simulations of coal/biomass combustion.…”

Inferring the dynamics of diversification: a coalescent approach. by Hélène Morlon, Matthew D Potts, Joshua B Plotkin

“…Under this hypothesis, speciation rates decay over time and biodiversity eventually saturates, with new species emerging only when others are driven to extinction. This view of macro-evolution contradicts an alternative hypothesis that biodiversity is unbounded, with species ever accumulating as they find new niches to occupy. …”

Modeling The Fate of Sumatran Elephants in Bukit Tigapuluh Indonesia: Research Needs & Implications for Population Management by Alexander Markus Moßbrucker, Muhammad Ali Imron, Satyawan Pudyatmoko, Peter-Hinrich Pratje, Sumardi Sumardi

“…This study applies PVA to a local population of Sumatran elephants roaming the Bukit Tigapuluh landscape, Sumatra, with the main goal to explore the impact of pre-selected conservation measures and population scenarios on both population growth rate and extinction probability. Sensitivity testing revealed considerable parameter uncertainties that should be addressed by targeted research projects in order to improve the predictive power of the baseline population model. …”

Global dynamics for two-species competition in patchy environment by Kuang-Hui Lin, Yuan Lou, Chih-Wen Shih, Tze-Hung Tsai

“…It is shown that the species with largerbirth rates in both patches drives the other species to extinction, regardless of the dispersal rate. The more interesting case is when both species have the same average birth rate but each species has larger birth rate in one patch. …”
