Bird4pop model for the simulation of foraging, dispersal and population processes of UK passerine birds
Bird4pop is a process-based model, written in R, that simulates the foraging, dispersal and population processes of nidicolous passerines. It accounts for both amount and configuration of habitat resources to predict spatially-explicit relative abundance and foraging...
