Ecology and Evolution Simulations

Tietjen Web-based Simulations

IMPORTANT NOTE: The following simulations are configured to work in your browser. In some cases they will not appear if your system does not accept active X controls. If that's the case, and you don't want to enable the control, use the stand-alone programs and install them on your computer.

  1. Go to the Moth Simulation.
  2. Predator-Prey Models
  3. Food Web/ Cybernetic Simulation.
  4. Energy flow simulation.
  5. Insect Orders widget.
  6. Go to the Moth Simulation.
  7. Species Diversity Calculator
  8. Dendogram calculations.
  9. Climate Space Model
  10. Transpiration Model
  11. Game Theory Model.
  12. Life Table widget.
  13. Mark and Recapture Simulation.
  14. Population Growth Model
  15. Competition Model`
  16. Predator-Prey Models
  17. Food Web/ Cybernetic Simulation also available in jive
  18. Energy flow simulation.
  19. Marine Productivity Model.
  20. Leaf Litter Decomposition
  21. Computer programs for data collection and analysis.

If you wish, you can Download and Install stand-alone versions of the ecology and evolution models. These versions will run without a connection to the interne and provide additional functionality. Click on the desired model, tell it to run from it's current location, and just follow the setup directions. For more detailed install procedures, click here. Permission is granted to other instructors to use these programs in their classrooms. All I ask is that you e-mail me telling me how the programs are being used. Suggestions are welcome.
