gause_1934_book_f13

A dataset containing the the growth in volume of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccaromyces kephir cultivated 
in the mixed population (two series of experiments) under anaerobic conditions. Gause also measured the volume of 
the mixed population. The Volume is measured in "Amount of yeast", which refers to a standardized index, 
based on the alcohol production per Unit of Yeast.

datasets

A collection of tools and data for analyzing the Gause microcosm experiments, and for fitting Lotka-Volterra models to time series data. Includes methods for fitting single-species logistic growth, and multi-species interaction models, e.g. of competition, predator/prey relationships, or mutualism. See documentation for individual functions for examples. In general, see the lv_optim() function for examples of how to fit parameter values in multi-species systems. Note that the general methods applied here, as well as the form of the differential equations that we use, are described in detail in the Quantitative Ecology textbook by Lehman et al., available at <http://hdl.handle.net/11299/204551>, and in Lina K.
