摘要

In this article, the stability of equilibrium solutions of a recently formulated mathematical model of Savanna ecosystem is analytically and numerically analyzed. The mathematical model is formulated by generalizing all plant life into three components; trees, tree saplings, and grass under ecologically valid effects of fire, rainfall and competition for space. Fire has a considerable effect on trees by delaying the recruitment of saplings to trees and the recruitment rate is a piecewise linear decreasing function of grass with a sigmoidal shape. This leads to there existing different equilibria in the plant community of a Savanna ecosystem. It is rigorously demonstrated that the local stability of equilibria depends on the slope and value of the recruitment function. Moreover, it is found that the composition of high grass cover and low tree cover or low grass cover and high tree cover are the stable equilibria, while intermediate cover results in unstable equilibria. In analyzing the global stability of solutions, it is found that the limit set is an equilibrium solution. Several numerical simulations are provided to validate the analytical studies of the behavior of the equilibrium solutions. The numerical solutions are generated using a Python ordinary differential equation(ODE) solver. The analytical and numerical solutions presented in this work are very important for further developments in the area of mathematical ecology. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
