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
Incomplete knowledge of the variation in site quality to be encountered during migration may make it necessary for birds to base their departure decisions on behavioural rules of thumb. Here I analyse four such rules for time-minimizers and show how they perform in spatially heterogeneous, autocorre
