modelLinear: Linear rate model in function of temperature

In aleblancbio/timescale: A package for development time calculation and other time scalings

Linear rate model in function of temperature

Description

Correspond to normalized growing degree day model, without daily approximation of temperature.

Usage

modelLinear(temp, param = list(a, T0), control = list())

Arguments

temp	numeric vector of temperature (in celcius)
param	list of parameters named T0, the base temperature under which no development occurs, and a a normalizing factor such as development is completed at 1 (i.e. a = 1/GDD).
control	list of arguments that control the behaviour of the model; empty, kept for consistency with the general structure of rate models.

Details

The normalizing parameter should be set to one if the model returns units such as growing degree days.

Value

return a vector of rate associated to each element of temp.

Examples

modelLinear(temp = seq(0,30,2), param = list(a = 1, T0 = 10))
