Beschreibung
The book provides a way forward to advance our numerical models to include the details of modular plant growth that are key to understanding clonal plant dynamics and colonization. Readers are introduced to an individual based approach combined with a specific growth rate model to simulate aquatic clonal plants that can be applied to other species and ecosystems. These lessons are of interest to the natural resource manager practicing conservation and restoration, as well as ecologists working to develop models that include realism while also allowing for emergent behaviour.
Detailed “behind the curtain” look at how to combine individual based modelling with plant growth models Brings renewed focus to aquatic plants in the coastal environment as clonal organisms and Provides ways to integrate individual level characteristics with the environment in order to predict colonization Of interest to restoration practitioners, numerical modelers, and those interested in emergent behaviour and complex systems
