Competition Competition is the struggle between individuals of a population (intraspecific) or between species (interspecific) for the same limiting resource.

Species Competition Example: Sparrows & juncos - ground feeders As one grows, other shrinks (both compete the same limited food source) Sparrow: Junco:

Species Competition Recall that in an unconstrained growth model (module 2.2), it ignores competition and limiting factors, and dP/dt = births – deaths = r1P – r2P, that is, P = P0e(r1 – r2)t. If competition is considered, we can model the number of deaths of each species as being proportional to its population size and the population size of the other species.

Sparrows versus Juncos Ps - pop. of sparrows Pj - pop. of juncos ∆(deaths of each species) Depends on interactions between Proportional to what? Proportional to Ps Pj ∆(sparrow death) = ? (sparrow death proportionality constant) Ps Pj ∆(junco death) = ? (junco death proportionality constant) Ps Pj
