Computational Ecology: Simulating population dynamics
The explores code needed to run population simulations. All populations vary in size from year to year. Even if they are consistently growing, consistently shrinking, or staying stable, there will be variation year to year. If we want to project population dynamics into the future we need to take into accound this variation. We do this by randomly selecting values for key parameters. But the values aren’t totally random - they need to be grounded in reality.
Computational Ecology: The Bears of Yellowstone National Park
This document introduces a classic dataset used in computational popualtion ecology - the population dynamics of Grizzley Bears in Yellowstone National Park. That data were first pulished in Figure 5 of Deenis et al (1991), who extracted the data from other sources. Morris and Doak (2002) then added additional years of data. I will build up the dataset piece by piece and explain the R code used to create all the parts.
