Abstract
A model for [animal] predator-prey system was constructed which persists in a patchy environment by balancing a high rate of local extinction with an equally high rate of recolonization of unoccupied patches. Predictions for colonization and extinction were discussed.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
