Pearl-Verhulst Logistic growth model (Kot, 2001)

The logistic growth model is given by dN/dt = rN(1-N/K) where N is the number (density) of indviduals at time t, K is the carrying capacity of the population, r is the intrinsic growth rate of the population. We assume r=b-d where b is the per capita p.c. birth rate and d is the p.c. death rate.

This model consists of two reaction channels,

 N ---b--->  N + N
 N ---d'---> 0

where d'=d+(b-d)N/K. The propensity functions are a_1=bN and a_2=d'N.
