Settlement and Subsistence in the Western Anasazi Core Area: Development and Assessment of a Risk Response Model

Animation Illustrating Analysis Results

This is a Quicktime movie that illustrates one outcome of the analysis. In the movie, the map on the left shows site locations with scaled symbols representing the probability of occupation at the time-step for the analysis. The top and bottom elements on the right depict regional precipitation and population trends (respectively). The two middle graph elements depict the derived p-values through time for two aspects of site-specific modeled precipitation, and the bottom two images represent a modeled precipitation field over the analysis region.
