simulate_whale: Simulate whale density (mean / CV)

In ericmkeen/shipstrike: Utilities for spatially- and temporally-explicit predictions of whale-ship collisions

Simulate whale density (mean / CV)

Description

A simple function that creates a spatial grid of whale densities for use in simulating a shipping impacts assessment.

Usage

simulate_whale(grids, d_mean = 0.01, d_cv = 0.5, iterations = 1000)

Arguments

grids	The spatial grid to use as the basis for the density surface, as produced by shipstrike::make_grid() (see documentation).
d_mean	The mean density (animals per square km)
d_cv	The co-efficient of variation (CV) in density.
iterations	Number of bootstrap iterations to produce.

Value

The grids object, with new columns D and iteration indicating an iteration number.
