DOI: 10.1002/ps.6670
Abstract: BACKGROUND Migration is a widespread phenomenon among many insect species, including herbivorous crop pests. At present, scant information exists on the long-range migration of the polyphagous armyworm, Spodoptera exigua and its underlying climatic determinants (i.e.,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00285-017-1103-z
Abstract: We consider a one-dimensional population genetics model for the advance of an advantageous gene. The model is described by the semilinear Fisher equation with unbalanced bistable non-Lipschitzian nonlinearity f(u). The “nonsmoothness” of f allows for… read more here.
