SELES Documentation

Spatially Explicit Landscape Event Simulator

SELES models complex landscapes using discrete event simulation over spatial grids. This site documents the conceptual framework, file syntax, and user interface for SELES 10.

Conceptual Framework

Understand SELES through its core abstractions: spatio-temporal state spaces, landscape events, dynamic context variables, and discrete event simulation over spatial grids.

File Syntax Reference

Complete syntax documentation for scenario scripts (.scn), dynamic model files (.sel), and landscape event files (.lse) — including all commands, parameters, and examples.

User Interface Guide

Step-by-step guidance for the SELES menus, the LSEditor, mouse and keyboard controls, and running your first simulation scenario from start to finish.
