Abstract

Abstract: This paper deals with a two-species competition model in a homogeneous advective environment, where two species are subjected to a net loss of individuals at the downstream end. Under the assumption that the advection and diffusion rates of two species are proportional, we give a basic classification on the global dynamics by employing the theory of monotone dynamical system. It turns out that bistability does not happen, but coexistence and competitive exclusion may occur. Furthermore, we present a complete classification on the global dynamics in terms of the growth rates of two species. However, once the above assumption does not hold, bistability may occur. In detail, there exists a tradeoff between growth rates of two species such that competition outcomes can shift between three possible scenarios, including competitive exclusion, bistability and coexistence. These results show that growth competence is important to determine dynamical behaviors.
