Abstract

The paper studies the effect of constant rate harvesting on population models described by ordinary differential equations. The dependence of limits of populations on the harvest rate, the possibility of extinction in finite time, and the effect of the introduction of a time-lag delay on stability are studied. Various models for one population are analysed, and a geometric technique for the study of two-population models is discussed.
