Using individual-based bioenergetic models to predict the aggregate effects of disturbance on populations: A case study with beaked whales and Navy sonar
Fig 9
Six replicate simulations (panels) of the modelled population abundance of Md in response to MFAS disturbance for three different behavioral response scenarios (colors).
These simulations contribute to the mean population abundance of Md as shown in Fig 5. As opposed to mean population abundance, output from individual simulations give a better idea of the variation of population abundance across time and between replicate simulations. All parameters at default values (Table S3 in S1 File).
