Specifically, he will demonstrate that there is a threshold value of <span class=\"mwe-math-mathml-inline mwe-math-mathml-a11y\">\u03c4<\/span>, which represents the critical time for prey availability before the optimal period for predator growth. Placed in an ecological context, these findings provide mathematical support for the match-mismatch hypothesis in this particular species.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Keywords<\/em>: Lokta-Volterra, Predator-prey, Hopf bifurcation, Match-mismatch, Barents Sea, Capelin, Zooplankton<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1695033709348{padding-right: 0px !important;}&#8221;]<div class=\"infobox teal\">\n<h2 class=\"heading-4\"><strong>When and where?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Thursday, 14.11.24, 11:15 &#8211; 11:55.<\/p>\n<p>Copernicus lecture room, 1st floor, Nansen Center, Jahnebakken 3, Bergen<\/p><\/div><div class=\"infobox light-blue\">\n<h2 class=\"heading-4\"><strong>About Dr. Sam Subbey<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Sam Subbey is a Principal Scientist at the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Bergen and an Adjunct Professor in computations at the Western Norway University of Applied Science (HVL).
