The >most significant new biological components of Zelig++ involve >simulations of phenology and a revised tree-species temperature >response which is independent of range data. This version also >supports the simulation of frost regimes, and contains an improved >monthly precipitation model. It is easy to run the model against >historical climate data or against climate change scenarios. > >Zelig++ has been completely re-written in ANSI C. All memory >allocation is dynamic. It provides a command line based user interface >and a programmable scripting language or model shell. > >Zelig++ has a built-in graphical display facility based on the gnuplot >plotting package, and an interactive command line interface. The >ability to simulate certain aspects of natural disturbance, timber >harvesting and silviculture remains from the previous version, >Zelig:B.C. (Environmental Software 1993 (8) p219-230). > >The source distribution for Zelig++ is available by anonymous ftp from >grebe.geog.ubc.ca, in directory Zelig++ as Zelig++.0.9.tar.Z. A copy >of the preliminary users notes is part of the distribution; a >postscript version is in the ftp directory as doc.ps.Z > >Zelig++ requires a UNIX(tm)-like operating system and X-windows to >run.
