This web resource describes the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Across Trophic Level System Simulation (ATLSS) Program, which has produced a set of models, including spatially explicit species index models, population demography models, and ecosystem process models that are designed to evaluate the ecological effects of hydrologic scenarios on selected Everglades biota during the Central and South Florida Project Comprehensive Review Study (Restudy). The program also supported field studies that produced data relevant to model construction and validation. The ATLSS Program has continued to develop, refine, and test models to provide information about the ecological effects for the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). Less...
