A spatially explicit population genetic simulation engine Long Description (required)
Individual-based, spatially explicit models provide a mechanism to understand distributions of individuals on the landscape; however, few models have been coupled with population genetics. The primary benefits of such a combination is to assess performance of populationgenetic estimators in realistic situations. KERNELPOP represents a flexible framework to implement almost any arbitrary population-genetic and demographic model in a spatially explicit context using a variety of dispersal kernels. Estimates of type I error associated with genome scans in metapopulations are provided as an illustration of this software’s utility http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/kernelPop/
Step 1: Use the attribute tree to add new attributes or remove pre-selected attributes to describe the simulator.

Summary of Proposed Changes Step 2: Review list of proposed attribute addition(s) and subtraction(s).
Can't Find the Attribute You Are Looking For? If you would like to propose an attribute that you cannot find in the tree above, or if you would like to add a clarification to one or more attributes for this simulator (e.g. a specific file format for attribute /Output/File Format/Other), please list them in the Additional Comment box of the Submit tab .
