Stochasticity in host-parasitoid models informs mechanisms regulating population dynamics
Abstract Population dynamics of host-parasitoid interactions have been traditionally studied using a discrete-time formalism starting from the classical work of Nicholson and Bailey. It is well known that differences in parasitism risk among individual hosts can stabilize the otherwise unstable equi...
