Dynamics propagate through metapopulation networks
We found that in the case of a simple chain of populations, the dynamics of destination populations can be overridden by the dynamics of origin populations (Fig \ref{438608}). Interestingly, this is true both of cyclical dynamics overruling stable dynamics and vice versa, though the required amount of migration differs according to the origin and destination dynamics (see supporting information Fig \ref{175706}). This migration can also allow for strain coexistence even in populations where the local parameters would suggest extinction of one or more strains.
