Description

discuss the population dynamics of metapopulations consisting of many small local populations coupled by migration. By means of analytical calculations and direct numerical simulations of the stochastic population dynamics I address the question: what is the most likely path to extinction? With A. Eriksson (Cambridge University) and F. Elias Wolff (University of Gothenburg). An overview of metapopulation dynamics is given in the review article by Hanski [1].
