demoniche - spatial population dynamics

demoniche carries out spatially-explicit demographic modelling. The model simulates stochastic and gradual niche changes, to investigate population dynamics and persistence in space and time. demoniche offers the following features:

• Transition matrices that represent demographic responses to environmental or human impact scenarios
• Demographic and environmental stochasticity
• Temporal trends in environmental suitability of the species niche
• Long- and short-distance dispersal

demoniche is built in R and can be downloaded here. We encourage you to adapt demoniche to your and your species specific needs!
