物理栖息地模拟系统(PHABSIM)和模型是由美国鱼类和野生动物管理局(Bovee和Milhous 1978;Bovee 1982)，已被广泛使用(Reiser et al. 1989;哈特菲尔德和布鲁斯2000;Locke等人，2008)，审查(例如，Wesche和richard 1980;Morhardt 1986;Annear et al. 2004)，偶尔也会受到批评(Mathur et al. 1985;Scott和Shirvell 1987;Hudson et al. 2003)。它最近的批评者Railsback(2016)甚至把他的论文标题命名为“为什么是时候让PHABSIM退出牧场了”。这引发了Beecher(2017)和Stalnaker等人(2017)的评论，以及Railsback(2017)的相应回应。 Kemp and Katopodis (2017) also provided comments noting the timeliness of the Railsback (2017) paper and promoting further dialogue on the subject. We read all three comments and the author’s response to the first two, and as active instream flow practitioners and independent reviewers of the original Railsback (2016) article, we felt there was more to be said. We note that we have the highest respect for Railsback and his colleagues; we also admit that at the outset of our review of the 2016 article, we were somewhat expecting to be convinced and echo the strident cry for PHABSIM retirement. Instead, we found that many of the core criticisms (of PHABSIM) were weak, wrong (at least by our interpretation), or outdated and misaligned with contemporary PHABSIM practices.
