plotSimulation: Plots results of 'simulatePopulation'.

In virtualPollen: Simulating Pollen Curves from Virtual Taxa with Different Life and Niche Traits

Plots results of simulatePopulation.

Description

This function takes as input the output of simulatePopulation, and plots the pollen abundance, number of individuals, biomass, driver, and environmnetal suitability of each simulation outcome.

Usage

plotSimulation(
  simulation.output = NULL,
  species = "all",
  burnin = FALSE,
  filename = NULL,
  time.zoom = NULL,
  panels = c("Driver A",
           "Driver B",
           "Suitability",
           "Population",
           "Mortality",
           "Biomass",
           "Pollen"
           ),
 plot.title = NULL,
 width = 12,
 text.size = 20,
 title.size = 25,
 line.size = 1
 )

Arguments

simulation.output	output of simulatePopulation.
species	a number or vector of numbers representing rows in the parameters dataframe, or a string or vector of strings referencing to the "label" column of the parameters dataframe.
burnin	if FALSE, burn-in period is not considered in the model.
filename	character string, name of output pdf file. If NULL or empty, no pdf is produced. It shouldn't include the extension of the output file.
time.zoom	vector of two numbers indicating the beginnign and end of the time interval to be plotted (i.e. "c(5000, 10000)")
panels	character string or vector of character strings with these possible values: "Driver A", "Driver B","Suitability", "Population", "Mortality", "Biomass", "Pollen".
plot.title	character string to use as plot title.
width	plot width in inches.
text.size	text size of the plot.
title.size	plot title size.
line.size	size of lines in plots.

Details

The user can decide what virtual taxa to plot (argument species), and what information to show throught the panels argument. Output is plotted on screen by default, and printed to pdf if the filename argument is filled.
