Abstract
In this short note, we study the Fisher-KPP population model with a time-dependent Allee threshold. We consider the time dependence as sinusoidal functions and rational functions as they relate to varying environmental situations of the model. Employing the generalized Riccati equation mapping method, we obtain exact traveling wave solutions. Also, when the time-dependent Allee threshold decays to a constant value, we recover the traveling wave solution of the degenerate Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation from our general solution.
