Models of individual growth in a random environment: study and application of first passage times

We study the first-passage times for models of individual growth of animals in randomly fluctuating environments. In particular, we present results on the mean and variance of the first-passage time by a high threshold value (higher than the initial size). The models considered are stochastic differ...
