Ecology 3702 Assignment 2 focuses on applying ecological models to real-world population interactions. The tasks include analyzing intraspecific competition at different compensation levels, interpreting Lotka–Volterra competition models for species such as cattle and blue wildebeest, and predicting both short-term and long-term outcomes of interspecific competition. Students also work with predator–prey zero-growth isoclines, exploring how population sizes change under crowding and resource limitations. The assignment requires clear explanations, diagrams, and graphs to demonstrate ecological principles in action.

0.3 per year.
a) How many years would it take for the population of springbok to reach
carrying capacity? Please report your calculations. **
