Application of stochastic differential equations and stochastic delay differential equations in population dynamics

Modelling population dynamics in random environment is a way of studying the fluctuations of population size that was affected by the stochasticity of the outside factors like weather. Marion et al. (2002) showed the ability of this environmental Brownian noise (if we assume weather effect follows B...
