Document Summary
Just need to fill in the blanks: usually - outcome will show a decrease in population size. The lotka and voltera equation: difference b/w logistic growth and growth for competition = impact of species 1 and species 2, when do species outcompete others, want to look at values - how can we determine this mathematically. If we want the growth of the population to be = 0, need the numerator to be = 0: want to isolate n1. (0) If n1 is = 0, what is n2: n2 will be the winner if n1 is 0. Second species: maybe species 1 will exclude species 2, equation will be the same, just need to change the species, determines the limit of coexistence of two species. Need to understand relationship b/w growth of population in function of the other species. 2 species competing: value of competitive exclusion (when 2nd species takes all the space)
