Description:

The Simulate stochastic growth from a sequence of matrices Workflow provides an environment to simulate stochastic growth by projection using whole matrix selection techniques in an independently and identically distributed (iid) environment from a set of 2 or more projection matrices.

This workflow is based on the popbio package (script: stoch.projection - Simulate stochastic growth from a sequence of matrices, Stubben, Milligan and Nantel, 2013) based on the The MATLAB code in Box 7.3 (Morris and Doak 2002). For more details of the analysis see: Exploring population growth in a variable environment with computer simulations (Morris and Doak 2002, pag: 229-233 and Caswell 2001, Chapter 14).

Outputs:

• Equal selection data • Stochastic projection • Unequal selection data

We use Gentiana pneumonanthe only as example how to run this workflow.

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 Package ‘popbio’ in R. (Stubben & Milligan 2007; Stubben, Milligan & Nantel 2011). ==================================================================================
