Figure 3.
Scaling of the searching process by the two composite parameters, l0/d and vtmax/d in one-dimensional space. The figures show where the optimal combination of male's and female's movement patterns is sexually dimorphic with given sets of parameters. Because males and females are completely interchangeable in our simulations, we consider only the cases for the combinations where a Lévy exponent μm ≥ μf. In the result of analytical solutions, the optimal combination is the pair of SW (approx. μ = 1.1) or BW (approx. μ = 3.0) (shown as monomorphic), and is the pair of SW and BW (shown as dimorphic).
