Niche Analyst (NicheA) was developed based on the BAM framework which allows users to create virtual spaces and virtual species, and to analyze ecological niches in both multivariate environmental and geographic spaces, linking views of the niche in the two spaces. The unique functionality in NicheA, not available in other software programs, is estimating Grinnellian niches of species based on environmental variables and occurrence records, but with a clear focus on fundamental ecological niches. NicheA can display ecological niches; calculate their shape, density, location, and other attributes; and quantify similarity among multiple niches.

Cultivation is a game about the interactions within a gardening community. The resources needed for genetic propagation are tight, and relations can become tense. Cultivation explores self-interest, the common good, conflict, and compromise.

PAMGuide is acoustic analysis software for the characterisation of the acoustic environment from sound recordings. PAMGuide can be used to produce calibrated spectrograms and statistical analyses of sound levels, and is provided in both MATLAB and R. A Tutorial on getting started with PAMGuide can be downloaded here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/2041-210X.12330/suppinfo PAMGuide was published as supplementary material to the following Open Access journal article: Merchant, N.D., Fristrup, K.M., Johnson, M.P., Tyack, P.L., Witt, M.J., Blondel, P., Parks, S.E.

Luscinia is a program for archiving and analyzing field sound recordings (especially of animals). It incorporates an interface to a database, spectrogram measurement algorithms, sound comparison algorithms, and statistical analysis.

MCC-LIDAR is a C++ application for processing LiDAR data in forested environments. It classifies data points as ground or non-ground using the Multiscale Curvature Classification algorithm.

The Dynamic Multispecies Metabolic Modeling (DyMMM [dĭm]) framework is a mathematical modeling tool that integrates multiple constraint-based metabolic models into a single dynamic community metabolic model. The DyMMM framework was formerly known as the DMMM framework.

*.xml files are uploaded to SAGA GIS toolchains 'Files' from where they can be downloaded: https://sourceforge.net/projects/saga-gis-rhotoolchains/files/ SAGA-GIS-toolchain_Burned_area.xml ___is presented in GitHub: https://github.com/RhoSpatial/Saga-gis-toolchain-for-burned-area-mapping- VIIRS_snow_tool_FINAL7.xml ___is a toolchain for snow cover retrival from VIIRS instrument imagery (NASA), input is study area cloud free VNP09GA product and DEM in GQ(nom 250m) resolution, it was developed to make high accurate snow cover analytics on Atlas mountains(Morocco). It was tested in 2017/18 snow season(output grids are available: mih.zemva@gmail.com). It is fairly complicated but not as much as toolchain for MODIS(not uploaded) with MOD09.. products input . * in line 139 polygon *.shp must be linked from drive; it's an additional retrieval of index values to monitor waterbodies and does not relate to snow cover analytics

Biosphere3D targets interactive landscape rendering based on a virtual globe. It supports DEM, satellite and aerial images, 3D models (Collada), 3D plant models, and Shapefiles. Biosphere3D was initially developed by the landscape visualization group of the Zuse Institute Berlin by Malte Clasen and is now developed further by Lenné3D GmbH. For more information about the used concepts have a look at the thesis of Malte Clasen: Towards Interactive Landscape Visualization Doctoral Thesis published 2011 via Technische Universität Berlin https://doi.org/10.14279/depositonce-3005

GIS data for Greece has been scarce. This project aims to provide methods, instructions and data for the construction of environmental maps of Greece with the help of open source GIS tools.

You can download the Color Mod at the Biogenesis main site too (included in the main download now). You also find the sourcecode there. If you want to post a review, remember that this is only a modification, so comment on my changes, not on the simulation. Original project by Joan Queralt Molina: https://sourceforge.net/projects/biogenesis/ Includes Tyler Colemans "Features Mod": https://sourceforge.net/projects/biogenesisfeatu/ Biogenesis discussion forum: https://sourceforge.net/p/biogenesis/discussion/ Biogenesis runs faster (at least for myself) if you open a Google Chrome window (don´t know why :D)

A cross-platform Java program to turn a simple Geiger counter into the equivalent of a state-of-the art digital model, plus some – using your laptop computer.

The BioEnergy Allocation and Simulation Tool (BEAST) is a tool dedicated to assess political goals of woody bioenergy production in the context of available biomass potentials and corresponding economic and ecological criteria on a regional level. It is a useful tool in participative decision making processes by iterative simulation and visualization of complex issues. BEAST is a data- and model-driven Decision Support System (DSS) evaluating woody biomass potentials from forests, hedges and trees outside forests as well as short rotation coppice (SRC). The latter one is modelled spatially explicit. This opens the possibility to identify prefered areas for SRC production under different restrictions and goals. Forest wood and wood from outside forests are treated only aggregated.
