TPC_beta: Beta Function Thermal Performance Curve

In TrenchR: Tools for Microclimate and Biophysical Ecology

Beta Function Thermal Performance Curve

Description

The function constructs a thermal performance curve based on a beta function \insertCiteAsbury2010TrenchR.

Usage

TPC_beta(T_b, shift = -1, breadth = 0.1, aran = 0, tolerance = 43, skew = 0.7)

Arguments

T_b	numeric temperature (C).
shift	numeric mode of the thermal performance curve.
breadth	numeric breadth of the thermal performance curve.
aran	numeric scale performance value. If 0, no scaling; if 1, include a thermodynamic effect on mean performance.
tolerance	numeric maximal breath (C) of the thermal performance curve.
skew	numeric skewness of the thermal performance curve (0-1).

Value

numeric performance.
