Stefano Allesina (University of Chicago): A metapopulation model in which patches have memory
Levins' metapopulation model has been extended in numerous ways. Here we analyze a model in which species have distinct colonization rates that depend on which species previously occupied the patch. We connect this model to the Janzen-Connell hypothesis and show some surprising behavior for a simplified version of the model. Zoom link: https://liu-se.zoom.us/j/63158449287 eventbrite link …
