Welcome to the Virtual Ecosystem
This repository is the home for the development of the Virtual Ecosystem. The Virtual Ecosystem is a project to develop a simulation of all of the major processes involved in a terrestrial ecosystem including the:
- growth and demographic processes of the primary producers,
- microclimatic processes within and around the ecosystem,
- hydrological processes within the vegetation, soil and drainage networks,
- biotic and abiotic processes within the soil, and the
- growth and demography of heterotrophs.
