Marketing’s next era: The scope and impact of marketing’s future, the reach and legacy of Shelby Hunt

Abstract

not only the effect of food on both the formation and characteristics of locust hopper bands but also a possible evolutionary explanation for gregarisation in this context. We do this by deriving a multi-population aggregation equation that includes non-local inter-individual interactions and local inter-individual and food interactions. By performing a series of numerical experiments we find that there exists an optimal food width for locust hopper band formation, and by looking at foraging efficiency within the model framework we uncover a possible evolutionary reason for gregarisation.
