Una ley matemática podría anticipar la posibilidad de extinciones masivas en los ecosistemas

Oct 9, 2018

BGSMath's Lluís Alsedà, Álvaro Corral and Josep Sardanyés have found a more realistic way to describe "bifurcacions" and predict if a physical system (climate change, or a species extinction for example) will undergo a gradual change or a catastrophic non-return scenario. The article appeared in Scientific Reports in August (press release in Spanish).
