vital_rate: Vital rate calculation

In cxr: A Toolbox for Modelling Species Coexistence in R

Vital rate calculation

Description

Calculates vital rates from their effect sizes and terms. This is equivalent to predicting from a binomial glm with given coefficients. In this version, the user needs to ensure that 'param' and 'env' match, i.e. that if the 'param' list is defined with environmental forcing, it is passed here, and viceversa. In future versions I may implement checks for that here, but for now, be aware that it will fail.

Usage

vital_rate(vr, sp, site, param, env = NULL, densities)

Arguments

vr	integer or char, vital rate to obtain, from the ones defined in 'param'. So far, valid names are "Sj","Sn","Sr","Rn","Rr","D","Ds,"O".
sp	integer or char, species
site	intger or char, site
param	param nested list (see 'build_param')
env	optional numeric, environmental forcing
densities	densities of all sp in the site, including individuals from all three life stages

Value

numeric value
