    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bag_limits

    A bag limit is a law imposed on hunters and fishermen restricting the number of animals within a specific species or group of species they may kill and keep. Size limits and hunting seasons sometimes accompany bag limits which place restrictions on the size of those animals and the time of year during which hunters may legally kill them.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_Lotka...

    In the case of a single trophic community, the trophic level below the one of the community (e.g. plants for a community of herbivore species), corresponding to the food required for individuals of a species i to thrive, is modeled through a parameter K i known as the carrying capacity. E.g. suppose a mixture of crops involving S species.

  5. Lotka–Volterra equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotka–Volterra_equations

    The Lotka–Volterra equations, also known as the Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model, are a pair of first-order nonlinear differential equations, frequently used to describe the dynamics of biological systems in which two species interact, one as a predator and the other as prey.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_=_PAT

    The maximum endurable impact is called the carrying capacity. As long as "I" is less than the carrying capacity the associated population, affluence, and technology that make up "I" can be perpetually endured. If "I" exceeds the carrying capacity, then the system is said to be in overshoot, which may only be a temporary state. Overshoot may ...

  9. Maximum sustainable yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_sustainable_yield

    At intermediate population densities, also represented by half the carrying capacity, individuals are able to breed to their maximum rate. At this point, called the maximum sustainable yield, there is a surplus of individuals that can be harvested because growth of the population is at its maximum point due to the large number of reproducing ...
