Metapopulation structures affect persistence of predator-prey interactions

1. We investigate the metapopulation dynamics of an extinction-prone host-parasitoid interaction. 2. Single cell host-parasitoid interactions show diverging oscillations resulting in rapid extinction of both host and parasitoid. By linking cells together into metapopulations and controlling for incr...
