Summary

The ATLSS ALFISH has as its main objective the ability to compare in a spatially-explicit manner the relative effects of alternative hydrologic scenarios on fresh-water fish densities across South Florida.

The ATLSS Landscape Fish model (ALFISH) has as its main objective the ability to compare in a spatially-explicit manner the relative effects of alternative hydrologic scenarios on fresh-water fish densities across South Florida. Another objective is to provide a measure of the dynamic, spatially-explicit food resources available to wading birds.
