New York, Oxford University Press. Seasonal matching of foraging to anticipated energy requirements in anorexic juvenile salmon. New computer models unify ecological theory. A classic reference on the potential value of individual-based modeling. Papers reviewing the recent history of individual-based modeling in ecology, pointing out reasons why the approach has not been as productive as expected.
Movement rules for spatially explicit individual-based models of stream fish.
Comparison of salmonid habitat selection objectives in an individual-based model. The state-based, predictive method for simulating habitat selection in fish is described in the first paper and tested in comparison to conventional approaches in the second paper. The second paper also provides an example of pattern-oriented analysis of an IBM to test specific model components and to understand links between individual traits and population behavior. Concepts from Complex Adaptive Systems as a framework for individual-based modeling. In review at Ecological Modelling .
