Dynamical analysis of an ecological aquaculture management model with stage-structure and nonlinear impulsive releases for larval predators

Abstract

<p>Ecological aquaculture represents an important approach for maintaining sustainable economic income. Unreasonable aquaculture may result in resource wastage and population extinction. Human activities and behaviors such as predation among populations make the ecosystem very complex. Thus, seeking an appropriate intervention strategy is a favorable measure to overcome this situation. In this paper, we present a novel ecological aquaculture management model with stage-structure and impulsive nonlinear releasing larval predators. The sufficient conditions for the prey and the predators coexistence as well as global stability of a prey-vanishing periodic solution were obtained using the Floquet theorem and other analytic tactics. Subsequently, we verified our findings using mathematical software. We also found a system with a nonlinear impulse exhibiting rich dynamical properties by drawing bifurcation parameter graphs. These findings provide a firm theoretical basis for managing ecological aquaculture.</p>
