Joydev Chattopadhyay, Nikhil Pal, Sudip Samanta, Ezio Venturino
TL;DR
This paper investigates how predator switching in a tri-trophic food web model can reduce chaos and enhance stability, providing insights into controlling complex ecological systems.
Contribution
It demonstrates that increasing predator switching intensity stabilizes chaotic dynamics in an omnivory food web model.
Findings
Predator switching reduces chaos in the model.
Enhanced predator switching increases system stability.
Feeding switching can control complex ecological dynamics.
Abstract
In the present paper we study a tri-trophic Lotka-Volterra food web model with omnivory and predator switching. We observe that if the intensity of predator switching increases the chaotic behavior of the omnivory model will be reduced. We conclude that the predator switching mechanism enhances the stability of an otherwise chaotic system.
