Mathematics Behind Dispersal and Ecological Pattern Formation
|
|
|
|
Department of Mathematics, University of Leicester, 7th March 2016
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The meeting will focus on mathematical models of dispersal, individual movement and ecological pattern formation. Discussions will include
(but not be limited to) stochastic dispersal, the master equation, anomalous dispersal kernels, and effects of movement behaviour. Applications will include plants and animals from different taxa.
