Abstract: |
There have been numerous
frameworks and approaches developed for the study of complex ecological
systems. For the most part, these approaches require extensive amounts of
information. The aim of this paper is use Agent-Based Models to simulate
complex ecological systems and examine overarching trends, using the Winton
Wetlands in Victoria, Australia as a case study. The study showed that even
though there are gaps of information about the functioning of this particular
site, this type of framework could increase the understanding of complex
ecological systems and assist in decisionmaking processes.
