Fully stochasticized age-structured population-bioenergetics model ensemble for application to communities
March 13, 2025
his is an R program for simulating multiple fish populations using species-specific projection matrices, interaction matrices, and bioenergetics submodels with hierarchical stochasticity. This program was designed to model the pallid sturgeon (Scaphirhynchus albus) and associated fish species in the Lower Missouri River (Wildhaber et al. 2024), but it should be sufficiently general to simulate any fish assemblage for which the requisite parameters can be obtained or estimated.

Sicklefin Chub (Macrhybopsis meeki) and Sturgeon Chub (M. gelida) temporal and spatial patterns from extant population monitoring and habitat data spanning 23 Years
Sicklefin (Macrhybopsis meeki) and sturgeon chub (M. gelida) historically occurred throughout the Missouri River (MR), in some tributaries, and Mississippi River downstream of the MR. They have been species of U.S. state-level conservation concern and U.S. Endangered Species Act listing candidates since the 1990s. We applied analytical approaches from occupancy modeling to correlation to...
