MoosePOPd Web Interactive: Software to investigate the demography of Moose in New York, USA from 2015-2019

Other Titles

Abstract

Population matrix models are analytical tools used to understand the demographic properties of populations. We used the annual counts of calf, young adult, and mature adult moose in the Adirondack region of New York, USA between 2015 and 2019 understand population dynamics. We used a combinatorial optimization algorithm to estimate the life table, predicted annual abundances, growth rates (asymptotic, transient and cumulative), stable stage distribution, reproductive value, survival rates, sensitivities, elasticities, damping ratios, harmonic and arithmetic mean abundances, and reactivity. This interactive software displays the results, and may be modified to investigate moose dynamics in regions outside New York state.
