摘要:

生长在随时间和空间变化的环境中物种会在不同地点表现出种群数量的差异,即使在没有持久性地点偏好的情况下也是如此。本文通过研究一个空间分隔社区的最小模型来量化这种非平衡效应,该模型包含时间平均中性竞争但具有位置依赖性的环境波动。我们通过解析推导出两种点不平等分布,定义为物种在两个地点之间种群数量的对数比。我们描述了松弛通过迁移和波动强度的平衡如何决定这些分布的总体和极值统计,在两块区域和无限块区域的情况下。我们展示了噪声诱导的双峰不平等转变的存在,这取决于环境波动的相关时间尺度。最后,我们讨论了在具有时间相关性的环境中有限迁移率的进化优势。

英文摘要:

Species growing in environments that change in time and space will vary in their abundance across locations, even in the absence of persistent location preferences. Here we quantify this non-equilibrium effect by studying a minimal model of a spatially compartmentalised community with time-averaged-neutral competition but location-dependent environmental fluctuations. We analytically derive distributions of two-point inequality, defined as the log-ratio of a species' abundance across a pair of locations. We characterise how the balance of relaxation via migration and fluctuation strength determine the bulk and extreme value statistics of these distributions in the two-patch and infinite-patch cases. We demonstrate the existence of a noise-induced transition to bimodal inequality, which depends on the correlation timescale of the environmental fluctuations. Finally, we discuss the evolutionary benefit of finite migration rates in environments with temporal correlations.
