Abstract:Habitat loss is one of the biggest threats facing plant species nowadays. We formulate a simple mathematical model of seed dispersal on reduced habitats to discuss survival of the species in relation to the habitat size and seeds production rate. Seeds get dispersed around the mother plant via several agents in a random way. In our model, seeds landing sites are distributed according to a homogeneous Poisson point process with a constant rate on R. We will assume that each seed will successfully germinate and … Show more
