“…Attempts to use one-dimensional discrete-time models to describe and predict the dynamics of certain natural populations were often unproductive: model curves, catching trends in changes in abundance, statistically poorly described the observed dynamics of real populations (Shapiro and Luppov, 1983;Dennis and Taper, 1994;Myers et al, 1999;Frisman et al, 2007Frisman et al, , 2015aNedorezov and Sadykova, 2008;Nedorezov, 2010;Tarasov et al, 2012). In some cases, the model description could be improved by introducing a delay into the equations (Nedorezov, 1986;Turchin, 1990Turchin, , 2003Berryman and Turchin, 2001;Isaev et al, 2001;Nedorezov, 2012;Sadykova and Nedorezov, 2013;Nedorezov and Sadykova, 2015). Delayed regulation occurs in natural populations as a result of interspecific interaction or in cases when a…”
