Impact of resource distributions on the competition of species in stream environment
Our earlier work in \cite{nguyen2022population} shows that concentrating the resources on the upstream end tends to maximize the total biomass in a metapopulation model for a stream species. In this paper, we continue our research direction by further considering a Lotka-Voletrra competition patch model for two stream species. We show that the species whose resource allocations maximize the total biomass has competitive advantage.

On the impact of spatial heterogeneity and drift rate in a three-patch two-species Lotka-Volterra competition model over a stream
In this paper, we study a three-patch two-species Lotka-Volterra competition patch model over a stream network. The individuals are subject to both random and directed movements, and the two species are assumed to be ide…
Evolution of dispersal in advective patchy environments with varying drift rates
In this paper, we study a two stream species Lotka-Volterra competition patch model with the patches aligned along a line. The two species are supposed to be identical except for the diffusion rates. For each species, th…
Effective Resource-Competition Model for Species Coexistence
Local coexistence of species in large ecosystems is traditionally explained within the broad framework of niche theory. However, its rationale hardly justifies rich biodiversity observed in nearly homogeneous environment…
modelCoexistence under hierarchical resource exploitation: the role of R*-preemption tradeoff
Resource competition theory predicts coexistence and exclusion patterns based on species R*s, the minimum resource values required for a species to persist. A central assumption of the theory is that all species have equ…
Pattern formation and coarsening dynamics in apparent competition models
Apparent competition is an indirect interaction between species that share natural resources without any mutual aggression but negatively affect each other if there is a common enemy. The negative results of the apparent…
