Modeling of spatial-temporal migration for closely related species

We consider a model of populations that are closely related and share a common areal. System of nonlinear parabolic equations is formulated that incorporates nonlinear diffusion and migration flows induced by nonuniform densities of population and carrying capacity. We employ the method of lines and study the impact of migration on scenarios of local competition and coexistence of species. Conditions on system parameters are determined when a nontrivial family of steady states is formed.
