摘要
We present EcoNet, a simulation and analysis software for ecological systems. EcoNet integrates dynamic simulation capability with steady-state network analysis. It features a simple and flexible interface offering a gentle learning curve for the novice modeler EcoNet contains sophisticated numerical equation solving routines, which require very few user choices, bringing the thought process and simulation results closer. Features like automatic diagram creation, capability to model large systems with thousands of stocks and flows, stochastic simulation options, and a web interface that requires no installation make EcoNet a welcome addition to the ecological modeling world.
