| + | 在罗伯特·梅的早期职业生涯中,梅对动物种群动态变化以及自然群落的复杂性和稳定性之间的关系产生了兴趣。他将数学知识运用到人口生物学领域,并取得了重大进展。其中较为突出的研究是[[逻辑斯谛克映射]],该映射是一个二次多项式映射。罗伯特·梅在1976年的一篇论文中推广了这一映射,它在一定程度上是一个时间离散的人口统计模型,类似于皮埃尔·弗朗索瓦·韦胡斯特 Pierre Francois Verhulst 首次提出的逻辑方程。 |

| + | Although an [[atheism|atheist]] since age 11, May has stated that religion may help society deal with climate change. While referring to what he believes to be a rigid structure of fundamentalist religion, he stated that the co-operational aspects of non-fundamentalist religion may in fact help with climate change. When asked if religious leaders should be doing more to persuade people to combat climate change, he stated that it was absolutely necessary.<ref>Richard Alleyne, [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/richard-alleyne/6146656/Maybe-religion-is-the-answer-claims-atheist-scientist.html "Maybe religion is the answer" claims-atheist-scientist], The Daily Telegraph, 7 September 2009]</ref><br> |
