Abstract

Chapters 1 – 3 report studies that focus on single state variables within behavioral systems. Behavioral systems, however, involve multiple state variables. In this chapter we demonstrate the efficacy of differential equation-based modeling which focuses on two state variables, behavior and habitat occupancy. This research was initially published in the journal Animal Behaviour in 2007 by Shandelle Henson, Brian Dennis, James Hayward, J. M. Cushing, and Joseph Galusha [16].
