Spence, Michael A. "Statistical issues in ecological simulation models." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 2015. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/10517/.

Abstract:

Complex simulation models are being increasingly used in ecological modelling as a way of trying to understand a system by examining the processes that make up that system. Complex simulation models generally model behaviour of a system through a series of rules or algorithms, rather than describing it in a formal mathematical way and this can be a good way of capturing an ecologist's expertise and intuition. When interpreting outputs from such a model, it is important to allow for uncertainty due to parameter values which may not be known precisely and structural or implementation aspects. Th

Industrial development can simply be referred to as the planning and building of new industries in special areas, therefore an industry can be defined as A sector of an economy made up of manufacturing enterprises in which the economic activity is concerned with manufacture, extraction and processing of raw materials, or construction.

Abstract:

Ecological problems are typically multi faceted and need to be addressed from a scientific and a management perspective. There is a wealth of modelling and simulation software available, each designed to address a particular aspect of the issue of concern. Choosing the appropriate tool, making sense of the disparate outputs, and taking decisions when little or no empirical data is available, are everyday challenges facing the ecologist and environmental manager. Bayesian Networks provide a statistical modelling framework that enables analysis and integration of information in its own right

Experimental results derived from small-scale systems are used to quantify parameters of the model; results from large-scale experimental systems serve to t

Abstract:

Abstract Eutrophication and global warming are increasingly causing deterioration of aquatic ecosystems, and boreal freshwaters are especially vulnerable to these changes. Anthropogenic pressures and landscape characteristics influencing the functioning and structure of ecosystems vary with spatial scale (grain size i.e. study unit and extent i.e. study area). This emphasises that the understanding of spatial scale is a vital element when studying species distribution patterns. Moreover, spatial scale is often neglected in ecological assessments, in which the degree of ecological integrity of

Abstract:

The Water Framework Directive requires reduced environmental impacts from human activities and for the assessment of the non-market benefits of pollution remediation schemes. This policy shift has exacerbated the research problems surrounding the physical, social and economic consequences of the relationship between land use and water quality. This research seeks to quantify the major socio-economic and environmental benefits for people which may arise as riverine pollution is reduced. To achieve these aims this research integrates primary data analyses combining choice experiment techniques w

Abstract:

This paper serves as an introduction to this special issue on the use of multiregional input- output modeling in assessments of natural resource use and resource use efficiency. Due to globalization, growth in trade has outpaced growth in global gross domestic product (GDP). As a consequence, impacts of consumption of a country increasingly take place abroad. Various methods have been developed to perform so-called footprint analyses. We argue that global multiregional input-output (GMRIO) analysis has the largest potential to provide a consistent accounting framework to calculate a vari
