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.
