An introduction to structured population dynamics

TLDR
In this paper, the authors present a case study of multispecies interactions with continuous models of age-structured models and show that these models can be used in a variety of applications.

Model-Based Feedforward Control of an Intra- and Interspecific Competitive Population System

TL;DR: In this paper , a model inversion is used to control the two different outputs, which are a weighted integral over the population density, which results in a restriction in the choice of reference trajectories due to the undercount of inputs.

Modélisation d'une population de mérous, effets du braconnage et de la migration

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors model the dynamique of a population de merous dans un territoire de peche d'une cote marine, en tenant compte a la fois de la croissance naturelle, de la peche et des migrations.

Population growth in discrete time: a renewal equation oriented survey

TL;DR: In this article , the renewal equation for the births is used to characterize the asymptotic large-time behavior of structured population models and the relationship between the two bookkeeping schemes is discussed.

Modeling the invasion and establishment of a tick-borne pathogen

TL;DR: In this article , a discrete-time tick-host-pathogen model was developed to describe the spread of a disease in a hard-bodied tick species, incorporating the developmental stages for a tick, the dependence of the tick life-cycle and disease transmission on host availability, and three sources of pathogen transmission.

A Note on Ergodicity for Nonautonomous Linear Difference Equations

TL;DR: For a class of nonautonomous linear difference equations with bounded, nonnegative and uniformly primitive coefficients, it was shown in this article that the normalized positive solutions are asymptotically equivalent to the Perron vectors of the transition matrix at infinity.
