Abstract
The Eyring-Stover theory of survival developed in earlier papers can be readily applied to a wide diversity of ecological phenomena, with implications for identifying basic responses of organisms to their environment. We report several examples to demonstrate the generality of the theory.
Keywords: steady-state theory of mutations, population and community dynamics
