A two or three compartments hyperbolic reaction-diffusion model for the aquatic food chain by Elvira Barbera, Giancarlo Consolo, Giovanna Valenti

“…The first model focuses on the dynamics between phytoplankton and zooplankton, whereas the second one accounts also for the nutrient.In these models, infections and influence of illumination on photosynthesis are neglected. It is assumed that the zooplankton predation follows a Holling type-III functional response, while the zooplankton mortality is linear.Owing to the hyperbolic structure of our equations, the wave processes occur at finite velocity, so that the paradox of instantaneous diffusion of biological quantities, typical of parabolic systems, is consequently removed.The character of steady states and travelling waves, together with the occurrence of Hopf bifurcations, is then discussed through linear stability analysis. …”
