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.Abstract:

Sensitivity Analysis of Nonlinear Demographic Models
TL;DR: In this paper, nonlinearities in demographic models arise due to density dependence, frequency dependence (in 2-sex models), feedback through the environment or the economy, recruitment subsidy due to immigration, and from the scaling inherent in calculations of proportional population structure.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of models for ecological risk assessment in coastal ecosystems: thresholds point of view is discussed. And the authors propose a threshold-based model for coastal ecosystems.
Modelling Walleye Population and Its Cannibalism Effect
TL;DR: To model the walleye population with its recruitment and cannibalism e↵ect, a matrix population model has been introduced and a delay di↵erential equation (DDE) model has also been introduced to characterize walleyes into two groups including juveniles and adults.

Modeling frequency-dependent selection with an application to cichlid fish
Sheree L. Arpin,Jim M. Cushing +1 more
TL;DR: A (discrete time) model is developed that accounts for both genetic and population dynamics in Perissodus microlepis populations that establishes conditions on model parameters under which the model predicts extinction and conditions under which there exists a unique positive (survival) equilibrium.
