Edge-linked dynamics and the scale-dependence of competitive
Empirical data for several ecological systems suggest that howresource availability scales with patch geometry may influence the outcome ofspecies interactions.To study this process, we assume a pseudoequilibriumto reduce the dimensionality of a two-consumer-two-resource model in whichdifferent resources are available in the interior of a patch ver
