In apferreira/dispfit: Fit distributions to species dispersal data

dispfit

R package to estimate species dispersal kernels

The dispfit package is an R software application developed to intuitively and comprehensively estimate dispersal kernels from dispersal data. dispfit fits and compares different families of parameterized functions to describe and predict dispersal distances. It includes 9 well-known and commonly used distributions, computing goodness-of-fit and model selection statistics, and estimating each distribution's parameters, along with their first four moments (mean, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis).

To install dispfit, run the following commands in R:

# Install 'devtools' package, if needed

install.packages("devtools")

devtools::install_github("https://github.com/apferreira/dispfit")

library(dispfit)
