species_info | R Documentation |
This dataset contains information about 15 African mammal species.
It can be used in the function format_data()
to convert individual counts
estimated from a field method to a preferred field method. The field method
can be A
(aerial counts) or G
(ground counts). See format_data()
for
further information. It also contains the maximum population growth rate
(i.e. the maximum change in log population size).
User can take this dataset as a template to add information for missing
species. Note that only species
, pref_field_method
, conversion_A2G
,
and rmax
are required.
