摘要

The Beverton-Holt, Ricker and Deriso functions are three distinct descriptions of the link between a parental population size and subsequent offspring that may survive to become part of the fish population.
This paper presents a model consisting of a system of ordinary differential equations, which couples a stage of young fish with several adult stages. The slow-fast dynamics captures the different time scales of the dynamics of the population and leads to a singular perturbation problem.
The novelty of the model presented here is its capability to replicate a rich class of the stock-recruitment relationship, including the Beverton-Holt, Ricker and Deriso dynamics. The results are explained using geometric singular perturbation theory and illustrated by numerical simulations.
