This practical, classroom-tested guide to modeling methodology explains how to implement simulations and analyze the results using a free, open-source software platform. Based on the author’s many years of teaching graduate and undergraduate students in several countries, this textbook brings together principles of modeling methods and theoretical foundations for a variety of ecological and environmental models. Theory is accompanied by practical hands-on computer exercises, progressing from easy to difficult. The text also presents a full review of mathematical methods, which makes the book self-contained.
