Empty Patch Colonization

Empty Patch Colonization is a theoretical framework within the study of spatial ecology that specifically models the process by which unoccupied habitat patches become colonized by species through dispersal and establishment, distinguishing it from broader metapopulation dynamics by focusing exclusively on the mechanisms and conditions of initial colonization in vacant patches.
