Analysis of Evolutionary Processes: The Adaptive Dynamics Approach and Its ApplicationsPrinceton University Press, 2008. 2. 11. - 360페이지 Quantitative approaches to evolutionary biology traditionally consider evolutionary change in isolation from an important pressure in natural selection: the demography of coevolving populations. In Analysis of Evolutionary Processes, Fabio Dercole and Sergio Rinaldi have written the first comprehensive book on Adaptive Dynamics (AD), a quantitative modeling approach that explicitly links evolutionary changes to demographic ones. The book shows how the so-called AD canonical equation can answer questions of paramount interest in biology, engineering, and the social sciences, especially economics. |

... the fitness of an individual depends on both the abiotic and biotic components of its environment. In particular, the dependence on the biotic component, i.e., on the phenotypic distributions of all interacting populations, is 12 CHAPTER 1.
... depends on the socio-cultural context. As discussed in the previous section, mutations appear in a single individual, or in a tiny minority with respect to the resident groups. Disadvantageous mutations, e.g., those causing the ...
... depend on the particular sequence of mutations and on the fluctuations of the abiotic environment. Abiotic environmental conditions typically fluctuate in time as stationary processes or as (nonstationary) processes with relevant ...
