From the agent-based, correlated random walk model presented, we observe the effects of varying the parameter values of maximum insect turning area, ��max, density of trees, ω, maximum pollen carryover, ��max, and probability of fertilization, P��, on the distribution of pollen within a population of Cornus florida (flowering dogwood). We see that varying ��max and ��max changes the dispersal distance of pollen, which greatly affects many measures of connectivity. The clustering coefficient of fathers is maximized when ��max is between 60° and 90°. Varying ω does not have a major …
