Model preferences: realism<br />

contiguous (lattice/network) vs. continuous <strong>space</strong>: networks<br />

may or not be spatial<br />

What is special about <strong>space</strong> (Bolker et al., 2003)<br />

PDEs, invasion waves (Fisher etc.)<br />

lattice <strong>models</strong> (IPS, CA/pair approximation): Durrett and<br />

Levin (1994)<br />

realism: points or a square (or hexagonal) lattice<br />
