We present a stochastic model of individuals' movements between two patches of resources. The population is made up of two types of individual with differing competitive abilities, and two types of movements occur, with individuals moving either to increase their intake rate or at random. Several pr
The ideal free distribution model which relates the spatial distribution of mobile consumers to that of their resource is shown to be a limiting case of a more general model which we develop using simple concepts of diffusion. We show how the ideal free distribution model can be derived from a more
