    Ecosim - All Results

    In Ecosim Summary we have shown the summary and interpretation of the large amount of data produced by running Ecosim over all selected scenarios. In this page we present the visualisation of all Ecosim model results, displayed either as bar plots or spark line time series as explained here.

    The state of the Kimblery marine environment in 2050

    In this session we show the state of all indicators and all function groups at the end of the Ecosim simulations (2050), expressed as ratio over the value at the start of the simulation (2015). Time series displaying the system time evolution are shown below.

    Indicator bar chart

    Below the bar plot of all chosen indicators is shown for all scenarios. The bar plots show the rate of change of variable over its value at the beginning of the simulation. More information on how to read the bar plot is available here. A larger image can be loaded by clicking on the figure of by following the link in the figure caption

    Functional groups bar charts

    As above, here we we shown bar plots of all EwE functional groups for all scenarios. The bar plots show the rate of change of variable over its value at the beginning of the simulation. More information on how to read the bar plot is available here.

    Time evolution

    In this section we show the time evolution of all indicators and all EwE functional groups visualised as spark lines, as described here.   

    Biomass and Divergence indicators - time series

    Here we show the time series of the system level indicators (Total Biomass, Divergence and Total Divergence) all scenarios. More information on how to read the time series apsrk lines is available here. A larger image can be loaded by clicking on the figure of by following the link in the figure caption,

    All indicators - time series

    Here, for each scenario, we show the time series of all indicators. More information on how to read the time series is available here.

    All functional groups - time series of individual functional group per scenarios

    Here, for each scenario, we show the time series of all EwE functional groups. More information on how to read the time series is available here.

    All functional groups - time series of all scenarios per individual functional group

    This section includes the same information as in the previous table, but organised differently. Here, for each EwE functional group, we show the time series for all scenario. More information on how to read the bar plot are available here.

    All functional groups - Raw Data - time series of all scenarios per individual functional group

    In the previous section, time series had been downsampled (one sample per year) and normalised to the starting biomass, to simplify the visual analysis. For completeness, here we show the raw times series as generated by Ecosim. The time series are sampled monthly and the magnitude reflects the actual species’ biomass. For each EwE functional group, we show the time series for all scenario. More information on how to read the bar plot are available here.
