Metamodels provide a novel approach to species risk assessment in which diverse threats are addressed through different disciplines, act at different spatiotemporal scales, or interact in non-linear ways. A metamodel links multiple, discrete models that depict components of a complex system, governing the flow of information between models and the sequence of events in the simulation. Each discrete model simulates processes specific to its disciplinary realm while being informed of changes in other parts of the metamodel by accessing common descriptors of the system, populations, and individuals. Interactions among models are revealed as emergent properties of the system. ...

Yggdrasill is a 3D phylogenetic tree visualization software based on the Unity 5 engine. Intended for educational and scientific purposes this demonstration release allows to display and explore evolutionary relationships between different terrestrial vertebrate species. Currently available features include procedural tree generation of evolutionary data provided by the Tree of Life (ToL) Web Project (http://tolweb.org/tree/), full three dimensional camera controls as well as a web...
