A population model with birth pulses, age structure, and non-overlapping generations
作者:
Highlights:
• We propose a population model with birth pulses and age structure.
• Successive generations are assumed to be non-overlapping.
• The population may die out, behave periodically, or exhibit chaos.
• Chaos does not occur when per capita mortality rates are strongly density dependent.
• Our model could be applied to populations of certain types of insect or fish.
