Are we using this platform for #Rstats help yet? I’m trying to figure out why my stochastic population simulation is running away instead of declining steadily like it does in the matrix format. Any #populationecology or #statisticalecology folks who can help? 🧪

Using #simulations and a case study on #fruitflies 🪰, we show that
- the widely used stationary approximation can be severely biased! ❌
- dwell-time distributions can deviate substantially from a #geometric shape.

#HMM #MarkovChain #seasonality #diel #stats #rstats #StatisticalEcology #behaviour
Comparison between true state probabilities, stationary approximation, and periodically stationary distribution for three different simulated Markov Chains. The bias of the stationary distribution is severe. Overall dwell-time distribution in the active state of the fruit flies in two light conditions. Both distributions deviate substantially from a geometric one.
