Boom-bust population dynamics increase diversity in evolving competitive communities
Michael Doebeli et al. introduce a discrete-time competition model with multi-dimensional evolving phenotypes to explore the effect of boom-bust population dynamics on the evolution of diversity. Their models show that long periods of near-exponential growth, followed by a population crash due to co...
