✦ Synopsis
Oscillations and chaos can be modelled and observed in a realistic simulation model of interacting prey-predator populations based on Monte Carlo simulation methods. These nonlinear phenomena are linked with some biological and physical bifurcation parameters and mathematical tools from dynamical systems theory may be used in order to characterize this behaviour. Chaotic dynamics are therefore, in our simulation, more the rule than the exception, and are related to delays associated with spatial degrees of freedom.

## Summary A key element in the solution of a geophysical inverse problem is the quantification of non-uniqueness, that is, how much parameters of an inferred earth model can vary while fitting a set of measurements. A widely used approach is that of Bayesian inference, where Bayes' rule is used to
