SIMPDEL: A Spatially Explicit Individual-based Simulation Model for Florida Panther and White-tailed Deer in the Everglades and Big Cypress Landscapes.
The below pages include several slides used to illustrate the talk given at the Walt Dineen Society Conference held May 22-24, 1997 at Florida International University, by E. J. Comiskey, L. J. Gross and M. A. Huston (talk presented by Louis Gross). Some additional information on the ATLSS Project is available
here. and the SIMPDEL Home page is here.
Talk Abstract (text)
Multimodeling conceptual overview
Multimodeling applied to South Florida - ATLSS
ATLSS - overview of structure
SIMPDEL model dependencies within ATLSS
SIMPDEL viewed as a very complex cellular automata
Overall program flow of SIMPDEL
Program flow of deer portion of SIMPDEL
Program flow of panther portion of SIMPDEL
Estmated hog density for input to SIMPDEL
Rainfall basins used to compare alternative scenarios
Water depth estimates - current base SFWMM model for basins 1-4
Water depth estimates - current base SFWMM model for basins 5-8
Water depth estimates - current base SFWMM model for basins 9-12
Water depth estimates - current base SFWMM model for basins 13-16
Map illustrating the TNC vegetation classifications for South Florida and the cutout area used in SIMPDEL (the simulated hydrology area covered by the SFWMM)
Screenshot of the run-time screen of SIMPDEL showing windows giving maps of deer and panther locations, water depth available forage, and the vegetation map, anlong with histograms for body weights and ages
Maps illustrating the modeled changes in deer distribution over an 8 year time period
Maps illustrating the modeled changes in panther distribution over an 8 year time period, with each map displaying weekly sums of movements of individual panthers
