Bug Populations (Logistic Map)
|
Link |
The time dependence of an idealized bug population that interacts with itself and the environment is modeled, and this leads to a simple, but nonlinear, equation. PREVIOUS MODULE: The modules Decay & Growth should be worked on before this one, particularly the discussion of exponential growth. NEXT MODULE: Bacterial Growth extends this module in a different biological systems |
