How to solve non linear system of ODE about trophic levels?

1 view (last 30 days)
Hi,
I have to solve this system of ODE in Matlab, describing nitrogen exchanges between different trophic levels.
The problem is that I am not satisfied by the plot, I expected something different according to Lotka_Volterra equations.
I Include the script, the function, the plot and the text of the exercise.
Thaks for any advice,
C.
