1. Spatiotemporal Patterns in Ecology and Epidemiology

   Theory, Models, and Simulation

   By Horst Malchow, Sergei V. Petrovskii, Ezio Venturino

   Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical & Computational Biology

   Although the spatial dimension of ecosystem dynamics is now widely recognized, the specific mechanisms behind species patterning in space are still poorly understood and the corresponding theoretical framework is underdeveloped. Going beyond the classical Turing scenario of pattern formation,...

2. Exactly Solvable Models of Biological Invasion

   By Sergei V. Petrovskii, Bai-Lian Li

   Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical & Computational Biology

   Much of our current knowledge on biological invasion was derived from field studies, but many recent advances relied heavily on mathematics and computing, particularly mathematical modeling. While numerical simulations are clearly a useful approach, they have some serious drawbacks. Approximations...
