The work shows that the Gause's principle of competitive population displacement can be violated, thus confirming the existence of competition with balancing. Competition with balancing can be analogous to the principle of sustainable development announced in the ideas of Jay Wright Forrester, Dennis L. Meadows and Jorgen Randers on global environmental systems. It is likely that competition with balancing cannot exist for a long time without external management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
