Do you think this is correct?

MAX (0:AND:8000, movement A+rep-mort-surv-movement B)

So the population will keep in between the values of 0 and 8000. Am I understanding?

set a maximum value

Hi how's it going,

I want to set a maximum value for a variable (maximum population grouth must be 8000, so it should not go further up than 8000). How do I set that up?

Cheers!

Hi there, if anyone is there.

I'd like to link two models, both in different views. I believe I have to use a tool called shadow variable tool. Interesting to know where that tool is!!!

Cheers for helping me out

Trying to save the results anyway

the values are wrong or the structure of the model?

random uniform

Hi guys, trying to understand the way of using this random uniform equation. I understand that: RANDOM UNIFORM( {min} , {max} , {seed} ) min is the minimum value and max the maximum value.
