You can freely
download the program “Populus” from Alstad’s link; it contains models on
general biology and others for some of our seminars. Populus has been tested on
macOS, Linux, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 (see details in
/download). The program includes a PopulusHelp.pdf file (mostly in English)
that was edited as a book in 2001 (EC-505). The book by Piñol
& Martínez-Vilalta (EC-650) can also be freely downloaded from the above
link; it is a good Ecology book, it is worth having a look at it. In addition,
it is another basic reference for seminars; in some of them we will be using
the executable models (applets) which can be found in /Aplicaciones. Important: you
must have “Java” installed on your computer before you can run either Populus or
applets. For most of all these
basic references, there may be editions that are more recent and/or in English. |
