Abstract
Three specifications of MLSM that illustrate both model functionality as well as key interactions between migration decisions and land function change are included. The examples were developed using the agent-based modeling platform NetLogo (https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/) and rendered into HTML formats using NetLogo Web (https://www.netlogoweb.org/). No software installation is needed. Open the HTML files using a web browser and follow instruction included in the 'Model Info' tab at the bottom of the page. The full model is publicly available in Modeling Commons: https://modelingcommons.org/browse/one_model/7156#model_tabs_browse_info.
