Testing an Individual-based Salmonid Model With Growth, Risk, and Expected Maturity as Movement Objectives.
Habitat cells are shaded by depth- brighter cells are deeper.
Fish in each cell are displayed from top to bottom in order of decreasing length. The simulation is initialized with five trout of nonuniform size. The animation automatically replays when finished. In the EM simulation, trout immediately respond to the change in food availability by moving to a cell with higher food intake. Their initial cells provide high survival probabilities and sufficient food to minimize starvation risk.
