We analyse the effects of environmental noise in three different biological
systems: (i) mating behaviour of individuals of \emph{Nezara viridula} (L.)
(Heteroptera Pentatomidae); (ii) polymer translocation in crowded solution;
(iii) an ecosystem described by a Verhulst model with a multiplicative L\'{e}vy
noise.Comment: 32 pages; In "Ecological Modeling" by Ed. Wen-Jun Zhang. ISBN:
