Noise promotes species diversity in nature.

Physical review letters - 28 Jan 2005

Lai Ying-Cheng, Liu Yi-Rong

Abstract excerpt

Species diversity in nature is accomplished by coexistence. In a spatial environment, inferior but rapidly moving species can coexist with superior but relatively stationary species. Recent work showed that chaotic dynamics can provide the spatiotemporal variation in the fitness required for coexistence, via the dynamical mechanism of synchronization and intermittency. Utilizing a realistic model that consists of...
