The majority of analysis of interacting systems is done for weak and well-balanced interactions, when in fact topology and rare event factors often result in strong and sign-biased interactions when considering real systems. We analyse the…

It is known that the effect of species' density on species' growth is non-additive in real ecological systems. This challenges the conventional Lotka-Volterra model, where the interactions are always pairwise and their effects are additive.…
