        报告（一）
        题 目： The effect of noise and delays on the behavior of a population, and the need to be specific about the underlying mechanisms.

        摘 要： A population is an ensemble of interacting individuals, and population behavior ultimately is the consequence of the behavior of these individuals. A population model therefore can be derived from a model of the behavior of the individuals. Following this procedure, different models for the individuals sometimes can lead to the very same model for the population, in which case it seems that the underlying behavior of the individuals may not be that important after all.
However, I show by means of examples that if additional processes such as environmental noise or developmental delays are incorporated into to the model, then they can affect the population behavior in different ways depending on the underlying model for the individuals. This is why modifications of a population model should preferably be made on the level of the individuals rather than directly on the population model itself.

        报告（二）
        题 目：Adaptive correlations: co-evolution of seed size and germination time as an example.
        时 间：2015年6月10日（周三），上午9：00～11：00
        地 点：理科楼202
        摘 要： In this paper we present a model for the co-evolution of seed size and germination time when both affect the ability of the seedlings to compete for space. We show that even in the absence of a morphological or physiological trade-off between the two traits, a strong correlation between seed size and germination time is likely to evolve, which raises the more general question to what extent a trade-off between any two traits should be considered as an a priori constraint or as an evolved means to actually implement a beneficial correlation between the two traits. We relate the sign of the evolved correlation between seed size and germination time to seed and seedling survival and seedling growth.
