+===== Introduction =====
 The mechanisms behind the coexistence of competitor species is one the major questions of community ecology. One of the proposed mechanisms are trade-offs, such as the colonization-competition trade-off, in which species highly efficient in finding new resources are not able to fend off competitors, and species highly efficient in monopolizing resources are not efficient in finding them.\\

-====Assignment====
+=====Assignment=====
-Propose a model that reproduces the community of acacia-ants described by Stanton et al. (2002) and that includes acacia tree population dynamics.
+Propose a simple model that reproduces the community of acacia-ants described by Stanton et al. (2002) and that includes acacia tree population dynamics.
 ====Proposed questions====
 ) Can acacia tree dynamics facilitate or hamper ant species coexistence?\\
 ) Is there an upper limit to the number of ant species that can coexist in this community?
