✦ Synopsis

A spatially explicit metapopulation model with positive density-dependent migration is analysed. We obtained conditions under which a previously stable system can be driven to instability caused by a density-dependent migration mechanism. The stability boundary depends on the rate of increase of the number of migrants on each site at local equilibrium, on the intrinsic rate of increase at local level, on the number of patches, and on topological aspects regarding the connectivity between patches. A concrete example is presented illustrating the dynamics on the dispersal-induced unstable regime.

A simple metapopulation lattice model of two competing phenotypes is presented, where one phenotype reacts more sensitively to overcrowding by migrating to neighbouring local habitats. The sensitivity is formulated by means of a threshold density of the subpopulations, above which dispersal is trigg

We derive an analytic expression for the evolutionarily stable dispersal rate that formalizes the balance between the e!ects of four factors: the cost of dispersal, the extinction rate, the coe$cient of relatedness and the mode of dispersal (i.e. the probability of common origin of immigrants).

## Communicated by M. Grinfeld A single population growth model with stage-structured and state-dependent impulsive control is proposed. By using the PoincarΓ© map and the analogue of PoincarΓ©'s criterion, we prove the existence and the stability of positive order-1 or order-2 periodic solution. Mo

## Abstract It has been known for many years that dispersivities increase with solute displacement distance in a subsurface. The increase of dispersivities with solute travel distance results from significant variation in hydraulic properties of porous media and was identified in the literature as
