Until fairly recently, populations were handled as homogenized
averages, which made modeling feasible but which ignored the
essential fact that in any population there is a great variety of
individuals of different ages, sizes, and degrees of fitness.
Recently, because of the increased availability of affordable
computer power, approaches have been developed which are able to
recognize individual differences. Individual-based models are of
great use in the areas of aquatic ecology, terrestrial ecology,
landscape or physiological ecology, terrestrial ecology, landscape
or physiological ecology, and agriculture. This book discusses
which biological problems individual-based models can solve, as
well as the models' inherent limitations. It explores likely future
directions of theoretical development in these models, as well as
currently feasible management applications and the best
mathematical approaches and computer languages to use. The book
also details specific applications to theory and management.
