  • Abstract
    The stability of two third-order population ecosystems is analyzed and system dependence on intrinsic rates of growth is demonstrated. A bounded, quasi-optimum feedback control law is derived to satisfy a quadratic cost function. The stabilizing effect of the law is studied both mathematically and via digital simulation.
