- Abstract
We introduce a novel gradient-based damping term into a Keller–Segel type taxis model with motivation from ecology and consider the following system equipped with homogeneous Neumann-boundary conditions:

N, with N ≥ 2, for some positive numbers a, b, c, χ > 0, τ ∈ {0, 1}, γ ≥ 1, β > α ≥ 1, and with Tmax ∈ (0, ∞]. As far as we know, Keller–Segel models with gradient-dependent sources are new in the literature and, accordingly, beyond giving a reasonable ecological interpretation, the objective of the paper is twofold: i) to provide a rigorous analysis concerning the local existence and extensibility criterion for a class of models generalizing problem (♢), obtained by replacing au

γ with f(u) − g(∇u); ii) to establish sufficient conditions on the data of problem (♢) itself, such that it admits a unique classical solution (u, v) for Tmax = ∞ and with both u and v bounded. We handle i) whenever appropriately regular initial distributions u(x, 0) = u0(x) ≥ 0, τv(x, 0) = τv0(x) ≥ 0 are considered, f and g obey some regularity properties, and, moreover, some growth restrictions. Further, as to ii), for the same initial data considered in the previous case, global boundedness of solutions is proven for any τ ∈ {0, 1}, provided that
