9813421PowellThis two-year award will support US-Netherlands cooperative research between James Powell of Utah State University and Wopke van der Werf at Wageningen Agricultural University in The Netherlands. The objective of the collaboration is to develop spatial models for biocontrol of fungal diseases. A robust model for bio-control based on integro-difference equations will be constructed at both substrate and crop level. The models will be connected mathematically using analytic and computational homogenization techniques. The Wageningen group has broad experience in the application and construction of models for ecological management and the PI brings to the collaboration his experience as a mathematical ecologist. The collaboration is expected to enhance understanding of spatial effects in ecology, use homogenization to connect varying scales in a realistic ecological problem, and establish spatial modeling as a useful technique in evaluating bio-control problems.

9813421Powell 这个为期两年的奖项将支持犹他州立大学的 James Powell 和荷兰瓦赫宁根农业大学的 Wopke van der Werf 之间的美国-荷兰合作研究。 此次合作的目标是开发真菌病害生物防治的空间模型。 将在基质和作物水平上构建基于积分差分方程的稳健生物防治模型。 这些模型将使用分析和计算均质化技术进行数学连接。 瓦赫宁根小组在生态管理模型的应用和构建方面拥有丰富的经验，PI 将他作为数学生态学家的经验带到了合作中。 此次合作预计将增强对生态学空间效应的理解，利用均质化连接现实生态问题中的不同尺度，并建立空间建模作为评估生物控制问题的有用技术。
