4. 3. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
   Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

   Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.
