Full textEcological systems and hypothesis can be described by many different kinds of theoretical models. Theoretical models, on the other hand, are idealized descriptions of real systems that can be constructed under different approaches. Ecology was deeply influenced by verbal models or hypothesis under a inductive approach. Although inspiring, such hypothesis can be logically flawed, since ecological systems are highly complex which trajectories are difficult to predict by intuition. Accordingly quantitative theoretical models can be used as tools to translate hypotheses and deduce predictions that can be confronted with empirical data. Mathematical models are most traditional and well-accepted quantitative approach. Despite of the analytical advantages of using mathematical models , they have limitations to address the complexity of biological systems in lower scales. Furthermore, they become rapidly complicated not only in terms of mathematical treatment but also in terms of comprehension by a biological and empirical audience. This difficulties might prevent that theoretical studies predictions play its role of ground empirical studies. In this sense, computer simulation models can be a promising solution. Computer simulation models are more flexible to include various processes, variables and interaction than mathematical models. Furthermore, they create virtual systems that are easier to be developed and understood by biologists. Here, we developed an individual based model (IBM) to describe communities with stochastic demography, intra and inter-specific interactions and dispersion. With this configuration we can build models combining of different manners three of the four processes present in hypotheses and theories in ecology: drift, selection and dispersal. In the first chapter we describe the model details of implementation and conceptions. We also simulated the model to explore a broad parameter space of competing systems, without specifying a group or system of study; we then analyze the model behavior regarding the proportion of persistent species in the end of the simulation and compared the results with the predictions of deterministic model with competition, without dispersion. In the second chapter we apply the model in a non spatialized version of it to assess the logical consistency of the predictions of the Intermediate disturbance hypothesis (IDH). In the third chapter we used the model to describe fragmented landscapes. We explored a parameter parameters based on empirical data of birds and we evaluate which characteristics of the species made them more or less susceptible to extinction in landscapes with habitat destruction. Finally, we discussed briefly how the model can be used for different purposes and some of the future directions within the theoretical contexts of each chapter of the thesis. We conclude the thesis with a reflexion on how the development and exploration of computer model in this thesis contributed to the student ecological background.

Full textThe aim of this Thesis was to evaluate the role of the submerged macrophytes with respect to water quality and, interactions with phytoplankton and nutrient cycling in the large shallow subtropical Lake Mangueira, southern Brazil. To achieve these goals, this work counts with approaches in situ, in laboratory and aplication of ecological modelling to verifify the influence of the submerged vegetation over the dynamics of the ecosystem, whose water is intensively explored to irrigate rice crops around its surrounding area. Over the 200km of the lake littoral perimeter, several submerged macrophyte beds are established. The analysis of water quality and phytoplankton structure along a macrophyte-pelagic gradient revealed lower concentration of orto-phosphate (PO4) and chlorophyll-a (Chlo-a) in the vegetated area. At the pelagic zone, the higher Chlo-a values were corroborated by the higher biomass of phytoplankton, which was mostly composed by cyanobacteria species. Such evidences suggest the antagonistic relantionship between macrophytes and phytoplankton as nutrient competition and allelopathy. Experiments of coexistance, in microcosms, with 4 native submerged macrophytes and a toxic strain of the cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa proved the occurrence of these mechanisms. The experiments included different levels of light intensity and orto-phosphate concentration (PO4) in the medium aiming to identify thresholds in which allelopathy is likely to occur. The macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana and Myriophyllum spicatum showed allelopathic potential while the species Ceratophyllum demersum and Egeria densa showed a high capacity for PO4 absorption (±0.35 mg.g-1d-1), being able to reduce this nutrient to lower levels than 0.05 mg.L-1. Another experimental approach was carried out to parameterize the leaching of nutrients and carbon from 5 macrophytes under decaying process. Moreover, ecological modelling was utilized to simulate the growth of submerged macrophytes in subtropical and temperate lakes. This was done aiming to evaluate the possibility of resilience enhancement of the clear water state in lakes of low latitude because the plants can grow continuously, in contrast with temperate lakes, where they die seasonally due to rigorous winter. In addition, simulation of scenarios considering the collapse of the vegetation in Lake Mangueira because of water uptake for rice crops were carried out in oder to provide elements for the ecosystem management. Through this approach, it was possible to forecast possible eutrophication thresholds for phytoplankton blomming. In conclusion, the results proved the the postive feed-back mechanisms exerted by the submerged macrophytes on the water quality and the importance of their ecological functions to the trophic state of Lake Mangueira. In addition, such information serve as theoretical and practical basis for the management, restoration and conservation of subtropical and tropical shallow lakes.

Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) stocks in the Atlantic Ocean are mainly distributed in the tropical waters. These two stocks spawn in the Gulf of Guinea during summer. When they are in their juvenile stage, these two stocks mix in the surface waters. In addition, the stomach contents of these two stocks show dietary overlap. Thus, we hypothesized that these two stocks may show the effects of ecological competition on both. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of ecological competition on assessing yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna stocks by using the surplus production model with a Bayesian approach. In the analysis of Taiwanese longline fishery data, the results showed that there were two fishing types in the fishery. One fishing type was using lower number hooks of per basket (8-11 hooks), operating majorly in the higher latitude of waters (north of 15oN and south of 20oS), targeting on albacore and called as regular longline fishery. Another fishing type was using higher number hooks per basket (15-18 hooks), operating majorly in the lower latitude of waters (15oN-20oS), targeting on bigeye tuna and bycatching yellowfin tuna, and called as deep longline fishery. The standardized yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna abundance indexes of this study showed extreme high CPUEs in 1994 and 1995, and highly temperal variation. In the sensitivity analysis of Bayesian approach, the results showed that unreasonable priors setting and questionable country fishery abundance indexes would result in bias of stock assessment. While input data included bigeye tuna abundance indexes of Taiwanese longline fihsery, the estimated parameters of production model showed a slight diference. In the analysis of the effects of competition on assessing yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna stocks, the results showed that the competition exist in the two stocks. Yellowfin tuna stock could obviously decrease the biomass of bigeye tuna stock (w2=0.2304) and bigeye tuna stock would lightly decrease the biomass of yellowfin tuna stock (w1=0.0981). The estimated parameters of yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna stocks estimated by the model with competition became smaller than these estimated by the single-species model, but the maximum sustainable yield (73,000 tons) of bigeye tuna estimated by the model with competition were smaller than that (maximum sustainable yield: 95,000 tons) estimated by the single-species model. Thus, we suggested that the total allowable catch of yellowfin tuna stock could be maintained at the current catch level (110,000 tons), whereas that of bigeye tuna stock should be decreased from 85,000 tons to 40,000 tons to avoid overexploiting this stock.

Full textThe waste is a growing concern that affects the society. Its management faces new challenges every day, with countries forced to adopt new measures and strategies in response to face it. In this study, a comparison is made between Portugal and Germany, in terms of their packaging waste management models, to take possible measures to be implemented that allow the improvement of the Portuguese’s system performance. The research begins with a literature review about waste management and their respective systems, and the Principle of Extended Producer Responsibility, this is a fundamental principle of waste management models. It also discusses the issue of the presence of monopolies, and what are the effects of competition between Producer Responsibility Organizations - PRO's. Subsequently, a qualitative investigation is carried out to evaluate the packaging waste management models, depending on their configuration, performance, and competition. The results of this investigation revealed that Portugal needs to take urgent measures to achieve the recycling and recovery targets imposed by the EU until 2025. In this sense, possible strategies are presented that can contribute to the achievement of the goals. Finally, a particular analysis is conducted to the Portuguese system, assessing the consequences of the introduction of competition between PRO's. It will try to quantify the impact on the number of packages declared, on the production of packaging waste produced and the respective recovery, as well as on the financial provision (Ecovalor) and on the level of investment in awareness and Research & Development.
