Metapopulation modeling
We have incorporated SRS as an adjustable parameter within our Indo-West Pacific coral metapopulation model (Matz, Treml, and Haller 2020). The SRS parameter takes values between 0 and 1 and sets the proportion of individuals that get to reproduce. This SRS fraction of individuals each make 1/SRS number of offspring, so the average number of offspring a stable-size subpopulation makes over multiple years is the same as in the base model.
