MetaLandSim

Metapopulations Persistence and Range Expansion Simulation MetaLandSim is intended to provide a virtual environment, enabling the experimentation and simulation of processes at two scales: landscape and range. The simulation approach, taken by MetaLandSim, presents several advantages, like allowing the test of several alternatives and the knowledge of the full system. The role of simulation in landscape ecology is fundamental due to the spatial and temporal scale of the studied phenomena, which frequently hinders experimentation.
