[ Get Service ]
[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: HexSim is a spatially-explicit, individual-based, multi-species computer model designed for simulating terrestrial wildlife population dynamics and interactions. HexSim is very general, with landscapes, life histories, disturbance regimes, and most other details being supplied by the user at run-time. HexSim also employs a sophisticated graphical user interface. HexSim is freely available, but still under active development.
