In stagePop: Modelling the Population Dynamics of a Stage-Structured Species in Continuous Time

Death Rate Function

Description

Return the per capita rate of death (per unit time)

Usage

deathFuncDefault(stage, x, time, species, strain)

Arguments

stage	(integer). The numbered life stage for which to return a death rate.
x	Vector of state variables within the DDE solver. To access a variable use: x$speciesName['stageName',strainNumber] e.g. for species 'Bacteria', stage 'reproductive', strain 2 use x$Bacteria['reproductive',2] If there is only one stage and strain in species 'Food', for example, use x$Food[1,1]
time	(scalar). The current time point in the DDE solver.
species	(integer). The numbered species for which to return a death rate.
strain	(integer). The numbered strain for which to return a death rate.

Value

per capita death rate (units of inverse time) for the strain, stage,species and time specified.
