Keywords:

  • modeling historic variation in future variability, and LANDSUM;
  • creating HRV time series using landscape modeling;
  • simulated HRV time series, user's content with model behavior;
  • simulating HRV, the good and the bad;
  • simulation models, output describing historical variation;
  • weaknesses of HRV simulation, and suitable spatial data lack;
