- Description:
- The question as to how sensitive a System Dynamics Model is to combination parameter changes in general is a complex one. A recent technique due to J.W. Hearne enables one to find the combination of parameter changes to which the system is most sensitive. The technique is applied here to an ecological model and a perturbation of the system along the most sensitive direction in parameter space is compared with single parameter perturbations of the same magnitude. The method may be useful in population control.
