Abstract: | An ecological model with time-varying parameters can be linearized about a point which is either a local equilibrium or fixed in time, but not in general both. Each choice has its advantages, but neither choice is anywhere near as useful as the linearization of a model with constant parameters. Linearizations of a model of annual plankton cycles can capture some qualitative behavior of the original nonlinear model. |
