Description

Function for plotting vertical forest profiles.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'forest'
plot(
  x,
  SpParams,
  type = "LeafAreaDensity",
  byCohorts = FALSE,
  bySpecies = FALSE,
  includeHerbs = FALSE,
  includeMistletoes = FALSE,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'forest'
shinyplot(x, SpParams, ...)

Arguments

x	An object of class forest.
SpParams	A data frame with species parameters (see SpParamsMED).
type	A string of the plot type: "LeafAreaDensity", "RootDistribution", "FuelBulkDensity", "PARExtinction", "SWRExtinction" or "WindExtinction".
byCohorts	A logical flag to separate profiles for each cohort.
bySpecies	A logical flag to aggregate results by species.
includeHerbs	A logical flag to include herbaceous layer in the profile.
includeMistletoes	Include hemi-parasitic plants (mistletoes) in the profile.
...	Additional parameters to vertical profiles

The function is a common wrapper to specialized internal functions (see vprofile_leafAreaDensity).

Value

A ggplot or a shiny application, depending on the function.
