DESCRIPTION
This master's thesis aim to see if fluctuations in the environment can make a stable predator-prey system naturally evolve into an unstable system. In [1] Abrams and Matsuda uses numerical methods to investigate the stability properties of a predator-prey system and looks at the effect that the unstable population dynamics have on the mean population sizes and the mean predation pressure. After re-deriving some of their main results, I introduce white noise in the prey equation to model the fluctuations which occur in e.g. the weather. Using both algebraic and numerical methods I present how different sets of parameters will affect the evolution of the stability of the system. The evolution of the prey population is assumed to select through the trait that codes for the prey's vulnerability. The parameter describing the prey vulnerability is therefore used in the evaluation of the direction of the evolution, which is done using techniques from Adaptive Dynamics.Unlike [1], I choose to separate the time scales of which the population dynamics and evolution occur on and evaluate the direction of the evolution by looking at the selection gradient. It is found out that the system can change its stability properties if the fluctuations reach a certain level. Based on numerical simulations, this level of fluctuations seems possible to exist in real ecological systems. The unstable evolution is possible since cycling dynamics have a negative effect on the mean predator population and positive on the prey dito.
