Abstract: |
The random dispersal of minute particles suspended in fluid is often mathematically modeled by a diffusion equation. The same diffusion equation is also taken to model the random migration of biological organisms and successfully provides fundamental insights into the role of migration in the context of spatial ecology. The purpose
of this talk is to introduce a diffusion model based on the behavior of individual biological organisms instead of simply adopting a diffusion model for Brownian particles. We hope to obtain a better diffusion theory in this way and explain dispersal phenomena of biological organisms correctly. |
