The aim of this work is to model and monitor the influence of abiotic (environmental) effects on a population system of several species living in the same habitat. The dynamics of the population system will be described by the classical Lotka-Volterra equations. It is also supposed that abiotic effects cause changes in given (input) parameters which are observed indirectly by the biomass of certain indicator species. Then, applying system inversion, for the obtained control system with output, the unknown input will be recovered in order to monitor the environmental effects on the population system.
Keywords: Nonlinear systems, Lotka-Volterra population system, system inversion, structural inversion
