Three species

The interface between two species and a community

Three-species system is a module of competitive communities and food web. In three-species systems, we can observe new dynamics which is never seen in two-species systems.

Possible outcomes

Ranjan et al., (2024) Ecol. Lett. categorizes possible outcomes by using expanded invasion criteria [Chesson (2000)].
