1
Q
the lotka-volterra model
A
logistic growth model including interspecific competition
2
Q
competition coefficient
A
the magnitude of the negative effects of individuals of one species on individuals of a second species (per capita)
3
Q
isoclines of zero population growth (ZNGI)
A
population size of a species and its competitor where population growth of the species in competition is zero
4
Q
coexistence
A
plot two state space graphs together, only when interspecific competition is weaker than intraspecific competition (if isoclines cross) - can be stable or unstable
