Using pattern-oriented modeling for revealing hidden information: a key for reconciling ecological theory and application

Article Abstract:

A step-by-step protocol for the application of pattern-oriented approach is provided and is illustrated with the help of three population models from applied ecology. The use of this approach is advocated as it may substantially improve models in ecological application and conservation.
