Defineso and . Part (a) already givesUsing the quotient rule,and hence the reduced Plant SI model with logistic total population is
For every , logistic growth gives . The asymptotic prevalence equation is thereforeIf , its only nonnegative equilibrium is , which attracts all prevalences. If , is unstable and the stable value is . Combining these values with recovers exactly the equilibria and outcomes in part (b).

Insertinto the continuity equation. Its zeroth-order part is the homogeneous cosmological continuity equationSince is spatially homogeneous, the terms of first order in giveOn the other hand, the quotient rule and the background equation implySubstitution of the first-order equation yields the linearized cosmological continuity equationThe ratio is the density contrast.

Letbe the vertical absolute vorticity. Taking the vertical curl of the momentum equation removes both the tidal potential and the isothermal pressure force, because each is a gradient field. The two-dimensional vorticity equation isThe surface-density equation isThe quotient rule now givesSince is the vortensity,
