Abstract
A mathematical model is proposed to study the role of supplementary self-renewable resource on species population in a two-patch habitat. It is assumed that the density of forest resource biomass is governed by the logistic equation in both the regions but with the different intrinsic growth rate but the same carrying capacity in the entire habitat. It is further assumed that the densities of species population is also governed by the generalized logistic equations in both the regions but with different growth rates and carrying capacities. It is shown that the steady state solutions are positive, monotonic and continuous under both reservoir and no-flux boundary conditions. The linear and non-linear asymptotic stability conditions of non-uniform steady state are compared with the case of the model with and without diffusion in a homogeneous habitat.
