โœฆ Synopsis

AbstractmDeclines in species richness or population are primarily attributed to habitat destruction and fragmentation. Can we avoid the local extinction of species with stage-structure in some patches by building some corridors between the patches and controlling the dispersal rates? A conservation strategy is put forward by introducing and analyzing the asymptotic behavior of some autonomous and time-varying population models. Biological implications of these results are discussed briefly. (~) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
