Abstract

One of the fundamental questions in population dynamics concerns the criterion for the persistence or extinction of a biological species subjected to their habitat changes. In this communication, to understand more clearly the impact of climate change on the global dynamics of mosquitoes proposed in Bao (JMB 76:841-875, 2018), we consider a reaction-diffusion free boundary model with conditional dispersal in a heterogeneous environment. Our main interest is to study long-time dynamics of solutions assuming that the environment is globally unfavorable determined by a spectral condition at infinity. The mathematical models to describe the dynamics of a population facing climate change have arisen many challenges in science and application and our result makes a theoretically substantial contribution besides the previous works (Bao in JMB 76:841-875, 2018; Monobe in JDE 261:6144-6177, 2016; Shen in JMB 84:30-42, 2022; Shen in JDE 269:6236-6268, 2020; Vo in JDE 259:4947-4988, 2015) for the study of the impact of the climate change with the conditional dispersal and free boundary.
