Dynamics and pattern formation in a reaction-diffusion-advection mussel–algae model

This paper investigates the dynamics and pattern formation of a system modeling the interaction of mussels and algae in the water layer overlying the mussel bed, where the algae are the main food source for mussels, and the advection of algae is directed from the open sea toward the shore. For such...

Description
Summary:This paper investigates the dynamics and pattern formation of a system modeling the interaction of mussels and algae in the water layer overlying the mussel bed, where the algae are the main food source for mussels, and the advection of algae is directed from the open sea toward the shore. For such a class of systems, we first provide a clear picture on the local dynamics of the semi-trivial steady state in terms of diffusion rate of algae and advection rate, and then the global dynamics is presented by persistence theory and global stability of the semi-trivial steady state. Finally, the existence of the positive steady state is also investigated.
