The flexibility of ALMaSS has resulted in its application in a wide range of scientific studies, for example:

• Population-level risk assessment (PLRA) - there are many examples of the use of ALMaSS in PLRA. Probably the most ambitous study is related to voles and anti-androgenic stressors .
• Climate studies - although still in development, it is possible to use ALMaSS to evaluate the impact of changes in climate on the species modelled by the system. The skylark response to climate is a good example of the kind of responses obtained.
• Population ecology - one of the main reasons behind development of these models is to use them as framework to evaluate our understanding of the ecology of the species. In the case of the Eurpoean Brown Hare this has led to some interesting insights to population regulation .
• Population genetics (example to follow)
• Management of small game populations. Rather than just predict impacts or risk it is also possible to experiment with models in ALMaSS to evaluate scenarios and suggest potential management. Some examples are evaluating the impact of hunting and conservation measures .
• Policy evaluation (example to follow)
• Impact assessment - impact assessment using ALMaSS is usually done by comparing a current baseline scenario with a potential future scenario. This can be done relatively easily by modifying input maps as in the case of evaluating a ground water protection plan .
