Predator prey models in which there is a delay in recruitment in both species and only adults interact are formulated and studied. Stability results show that the length of delays in recruitment in the prey are more critical than the length of recruitment delays in the predator. Thus the destabilizing effect of recruitment delays may be less important in higher trophic levels than some single species models indicate. Variance in the recruitment delay is shown to be an important stabilizing influence.
构建并研究了捕食者 - 猎物模型，其中两个物种的补充都存在延迟，且只有成年个体相互作用。稳定性结果表明，猎物补充延迟的时长比捕食者补充延迟的时长更为关键。因此，与一些单物种模型所表明的情况相比，补充延迟的 destabilizing 效应在较高营养级中可能没那么重要。补充延迟的方差被证明是一种重要的稳定影响因素。 （注：原文中“destabilizing”这个词在生物学语境下可能不太好理解其确切含义，这里保留英文未翻译，因为没有更多背景信息准确判断其合适的中文表述。）
