AN ANALYSIS OF A PREDATOR-PREY MODEL WITH LANDSCAPE FEATURES

We present an analysis of a predator-prey model with landscape features. We give the analysis based on the Hopf bifurcation theory. Moreover, the wave speed for different values is given by means of both nonlinear analysis and numerical simulation for derivation of the phase equation. The obtained results show that numerical simulations are in agreement with mathematical analysis.
