Title: META-X-Software for Metapopulation Viability Anylisis, w. CD-ROM: Software for Metapopulation Viability Analysis
Description: , Springer, 2003. , 24,1 x 16,7 x 1,7 cm, Hardcover. Zustand: 2. Meta-X is a user-friendly computer program that allows students, teachers, and researchers to perform a metapopulation viability analysis i.e. to assess the extinction risk of (meta)populations on discrete, partially isolated patches of habitat, in a comfortable way. The CD comes with an extensive handbook which explains the basic concept of the program and takes you on a guided tour through a model experiment. It further provides the necessary scientific background on both metapopulation dynamics and population viability analysis. A special feature of Meta-X is that it supports comparative analyses of alternative scenarios. This predestines Meta-X to serve as an aid for decision making in conservation management and landscape planning. Furthermore, handbook and software together provide an invaluable help in research and teaching. ISBN: 3540441824. Gewicht/weight: 2000 gr.
