Three populations can be simulated simultaneously. The temperature trend is determined by a projection of the change in global mean surface temperature according to the IPCC RCP2.6 scenario. In each input vector, the parameters for the three simulations must be specified (finite numbers for initial population abundance). The simulations are obtained by a model that incorporates the effects of temperature over time, which leads to a non-autonomous ODE approach. This is function uses the ODE solver implemented in the package deSolve (Soetaert et al., 2010).
(1) A data.frame with columns having the simulated trends.
(2) A two-panel figure in which (a) shows the population abundance curves represented by solid lines and the corresponding carrying capacities are represented by shaded areas. In (b) the temperature trend is shown. The three simultaneous simulations are depicted by different colors, i.e. 1st brown, 2nd green and 3rd blue.
