摘要: A stochastic metapopulation model which explicitly considers first order interactions between local populations is constructed. The takes the spatial arrangement of patches into account and keeps track are occupied empty. time-evolution meta-population governed by a Markov chain with finite state space. We give detailed description long term behaviour chain. Many interesting biological issues can be addressed using model. As an especially important example we discuss so-called core satellite species hypothesis in light
