Description

This pack contains a workflow, a file and documentation (tutorial to run the workflow).

The Matrix Population Models Workflow provides an environment  to perform several analyses on a stage-matrix with no density dependence:

 

This workflow has been created by the Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory (BioVeL  http://www.biovel.eu/ ) project. BioVeL is funded by the EU’s Seventh Framework Program, grant no. 283359. 

This workflow was created using and based on Packages ‘popbio’ in R. (Stubben & Milligan 2007; Stubben, Milligan & Nantel 2011) and popdemo (Stott, Hodgson and Townley, 2013)
