rtSetDepositionRatesByAge: DEPRECATED setting age specific density-dependent larval...

In AndySouth/rtsetse: simulating tsetse fly populations

Description

rtSetDepositionRatesByAge is DEPRECATED because for the grid level models we are assuming laravl deposition is density independent. This also keeps the code simpler. see rtSetDepositionRatesByAgeDI for the recomended density-indpendent version.

Usage

rtSetDepositionRatesByAge(vPopF, vPopM, iFirstLarva = 16, iInterLarva = 10,
  pMortLarva = 0.05, propMortDD = 0, iCarryCap = NA)

Arguments

vPopF	a vector of the age distribution of Females
vPopM	a vector of the age distribution of Males, needed to assess density dependence
iFirstLarva	age that first larva deposited
iInterLarva	gap between deposition of larvae
pMortLarva	larval mortality rate
propMortDD	proportion of mortality that is density dependent, set to 0 as default
iCarryCap	Carrying Capacity as an integer, not needed if propMortDD=0

Details

Gets length of vector from vPopF uses age of first larva, interlava period & larval mortality rate to create a vector of deposition rates.

Value

a vector of larval deposition probabilities
