Development of an individual-based simulation model of multiple-species mangrove forests

To ensure that mangrove forest conservation efforts are successful, simulation models of mangrove forests are developed to forecast outcomes of different environmental scenarios. This research presents MaDS (Mangrove species Dominance Simulator), an individual-based model that simulates the structur...
