Based on the author’s many years of teaching graduate and undergraduate students in the United States, Spain, and Latin America, the textbook shows how to implement simulations and analyze the results using an open-source software platform.EcologyMathematical modelsEnvironmental sciencesMathematical modelsEcologyMathematical models.Environmental sciencesMathematical models.577Acevedo Miguel F.930402FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910970871703321Simulation of ecological and environmental models4488267UNINA
