Mathematical modeling in ecology at the present time is very important, as many of the processes occurring in the biosphere (atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere) is impossible to imagine in real time, i.e. the “online”, that can be measured not in years and even decades, centuries and millennia. The mathematical model is also useful, and the fact that the chain of events can be scrolled, like in the movies, or in reverse order, or an accelerated manner. Given the level of mathematical preparedness of today´s students, the aim of mathematical modeling in ecology should be to master the fundamentals of modeling, formation of skills of sequential building a quality discrete model for studying the dynamics of various environmental situations.
