Most models of dynamics of infectious diseases have assumed homogeneous mixing in the host population. However, it is increasingly recognized that heterogeneity can arise through many processes. It is then important to consider the existence of subpopulations of hosts, and that the contact rate with
This paper considers the existence and uniqueness of solutions of an age-structured population model in a spatially heterogeneous bounded environment. The model describes individual organism movement of diffusion and advection in the older life stage but assumes stationarity of individuals in the em
