Dynamica

By Peter Henderson and P. Henderson

Dynamica is a unique Windows-based computer program, allowing the user to explore how animal populations and communities change through time. It uses an exceptionally long-term and comprehensive dataset, collected in a key ecosystem. Using dynamic graphical representation only possible with computing technology, it presents a range of elementary techniques for time series analysis, including data transformations, autocorrelations, moving averages and Fourier analysis, as well as a comparison of the various diversity indices. Books often portray communities and food webs as static entities. Dynamica shows you just how dynamic ecosystems are. System Requirements: PC with 486 processor or higher. Windows 3.1x or Windows 95. Minimum 4 Mbyte RAM. CD-ROM drive. VGA screen or better.
