ewl
calculates evaporative waterloss based on species specific parameter.
1 2 | ewl(Ta, pct.rh, t, areaPd, fung.params, bat.params, torpid = TRUE,
WNS = c(TRUE, FALSE))
|
Ta |
ambient temperature (degrees C) |
pct.rh |
precent relative humidity |
t |
time |
areaPd |
area of fungal growth (cm2) |
fung.params |
parameters returned by |
bat.params |
parameters returned by |
torpid |
logical, if the animal is storpid or not |
WNS |
logical, if the animal is infected with Pd or not |
The function includes mechanisms to deal with the evaporative water loss (EWL) of both torpid and euthermic individuals, as well as increasing metabolic rates for those infected with Pd.
