Description

gsneESF Calculates the “ecosystem structure function” using a higher taxon (e.g. genera) as an additional constraint

Usage

1
2
gsneESF(gen, spp, abund, power, G0 = NULL, S0 = NULL, N0 = NULL,
  E0 = NULL, minE)

Arguments

gen

A vector of genera names

spp

A vector of species names

abund

A vector of abundances

power

A vector of metabolic rates

G0

Total number of genera

S0

Total number of species

N0

Total number of individuals

E0

Total metabolic rate; defaults to N0*1e6 if not specified or calculated from power to allow one to fit models that do not depend on metabolic rates

minE

Minimum possible metabolic rate

Details

Use follows that of meteESF

Value

An object of class meteESF with elements

data

The data used to construct the ESF

emin

The minimum metabolic rate used to rescale metabolic rates

La

Vector of Lagrange multipliers

La.info

Termination information from optimization procedure

state.var

State variables used to constrain entropy maximization

Z

Normalization constant for ESF
