Years of experience has put FORT Scientists in the unique
position of being able to use their expertise to develop innovative and
important natural resource management tools. These tools are as diverse
as our scientists ranging from software for use in Instream Flow studies
to complex database systems for identifying wild horses. In use around
the world, these software and modeling products are available for download
only from FORT.

CloseTest
|
CloseTest is a Windows program for testing
capture-recapture data for closure, where closure means no individuals
were added to or lost from the population of interest over the sampling
period. Test statistics are computed using the closure test presented
in Stanley and Burnham.

Instream
Flow Incremental Methodology
|
The Instream Flow Incremental Methodology is a
framework for approaching various issues related to developing an
instream flow policy that incorporates multiple or variable flow
rules to meet the needs of the aquatic ecosystem while considering
habitat-flow relationships, timing of flow events, institutional
arrangements, and water supply.

Legal
Institutional Analysis Model
(LIAM)
|
The Legal-Institutional Analysis Model (LIAM)
was designed to accomplish three goals: (1) plan for participation
in a negotiation, (2) predict organizational behavior, and (3) examine
likely negotiation strategies.
