What is SELES.info?

SELES.info is a Wiki for sharing SELES documentation, model code, images and training material.

Anyone can modify these pages. It's a community effort! Please visit our Guide for suggestions on what and how to contribute.

What is SELES?

The Spatially Explicit Landscape Event Simulator is a tool for constructing and running spatio-temporal landscape models that integrate natural and anthropogenic processes (e.g. fire, insect outbreaks, logging, succession) and track indicators (e.g. age class, habitat supply, timber volumes) over long time-frames and large spatial areas. SELES extends research in the fields of landscape ecology, simulation, and ecological modelling, and is useful as a tool for research on sustainable forest management, natural disturbance modelling and habitat modelling.

How is SELES.info organised?

Here are jumping off points to get you to the right place on SELES.info. Remember that this is a community Wiki: please add material and improve these pages.
