Information on Earth's biodiversity is increasingly collected using DNA-, image- and audio-based sampling. At the same time, new statistical analysis methods are being developed to make more out of ...

"Using optimal control techniques in a model with realistic hydrology features, we illustrated how to adjust the flow rate in a river to keep an invasive species from moving upstream." Mathematical ...

When designing environmental policies to limit the damage of river pollution, it is paramount to assess the specific risks that particular pollutants pose to different species. However, rigorously ...

In this paper a class of nonlinear nonautonomous single species neutral delay differential population models are introduced and analyzed. Sufficient conditions for positivity and boundedness of ...

One of the continuing challenges in wildlife ecology and management is the ability to obtain reliable estimates of species’ distributions at large spatial extents. Multi-scale occupancy models using a ...

In a recent study, scientists from the department Living Matter Physics at MPI-DS developed a model describing communication pathways in bacterial populations. Bacteria show an overall organizational ...
