leslie | R Documentation |
A function to calculate asymptotic growth, sensitivity and elasticity for age-structured populations
leslie(L)
L |
the Leslie matrix |
A list consisting of the following components:
lambda |
the dominant eigen value of the Leslie matrix. |
right.eigenvector |
the dominant right eigen vector of the Leslie matrix, proportional to the stable age-distribution. |
left.eigenvector |
the dominant left eigen vector of the Leslie matrix representing the age-specific reproductive values. |
elasticity |
the elasticities. |
sensitivity |
the sensitivities. |
