Programs for perturbation analysis of matrix population models
These programs are related to a paper on exact perturbation analysis using symbolic algebra [Ref 1].
- killerwhale.r - R code for the killer whale example (generates Fig 1 in paper).
- lizardorchid1.r - R code for the lizard orchid example (generates Fig 2 in paper).
- lizardorchid2.r - further R code for the lizard orchid example (generates Fig 3 in paper).
- killerwhale.mws - the Maple code (Maple 11) for the killer whale example.
