Abstract

Simulations are an important tool for understanding ecology and evolution because they allow greater precision and customisation than traditional experiments or observation (Barido-Sottaniet al., 2020; Cabral et al., 2016; Zurrell et al., 2010). Additionally, they can model phenomena that occur over timescales too long to be easily empirically observed, but too short to be studied using the fossil record (Garwood et al., 2019). REvoSim v3 is a flexible, spatially explicit, individual-based eco-evolutionary simulation tool written in C++. It is an update of REvoSim v2 (Garwood et al., 2019) that increases the flexibility of genetic architecture within the simulation while also incorporating ecological processes such as inter-organism interactions.
