A food-web based unified model of "macro"- and "micro-" evolution
Debashish Chowdhury, Dietrich Stauffer
Abstract
We incorporate the generic hierarchical architecture of foodwebs into a " unified" model that describes both "micro" and "macro" evolutions within a single theoretical framework. This model describes the "micro" -evolution in detail by accounting for the birth, ageing and natural death of individual organisms as well as prey-predator interactions on a hierarchical dynamic food web. It also provides a natural description of random mutations and speciation/orgination of species as well as their extinctions. The distribution of lifetimes of species follows an approximate power law only over a limited regime.
