FA-65766 / Ecological population dynamics / Open access

Monthly population with seasonal breeding window: month wrap · case 01

December is treated as month 0 and every month is shifted.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The calendar month is computed without the 1-based offset.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Restore the month wrap rule: `month = (start_month - 1 + t) % 12 + 1`.

Unsuccessful approach: Dropping the +1 after the modulus maps January to 0.

Case contract

Calendar month of step t is ((start_month-1+t) mod 12)+1; the breeding window is inclusive and may wrap across the new year (start > end); each month survival is applied first, then in breeding months births fecundity*N*max(0,1-N/cap); return monthly N rounded 4.

Why this case matters

Population projections set harvest quotas, conservation status and pest-control timing; a wrong update order, boundary or rate conversion silently changes management advice.

Verification & scope

Deterministic bounded teaching model with a stipulated contract; not a validated scientific or public-health modelling library. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.

Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:47:37.135137+00:00.
