In liamkendall/pollimetry: Estimate Pollinator Body Size and Co-Varying Ecological Traits
lengthsize R Documentation
Converts body length to body size (body weight (mg)) for three pollinating insect groups (Diptera, Hymenoptera and Lepidoptera).
Description
Calculates body size as dry weight (mg) from existing allometries (See 'Details') using body length values (mm).
Usage
lengthsize(BL, Eq = "DIP")
Arguments
BL
A vector of pollinator body length (BL) measurements (mm).
Eq
A vector specificing which predictive allometry to use. Acronyms denote first (and second author), publication date and taxon. DIP, HYM and LEP options are cases where authors modelled body size across all specimens within each order.
Options implemented are:
Diptera
All: BN06D, G97D, GR84D, JS00DA, R77D, S80DCF, S80DCR, S80DMF, S93DA, W13D.
Brachycera (2 equations): S93DB, Sabo02DB.
Nematocera (3 equations): JS00DN, S93DN, Sabo02DN.
Asilidae (2 equations): Sabo02DA, S93DB.
Bombyliidae (2 equations): S93DB, Sabo02DBB.
Cyclorrapha: S93DC.
Hymenoptera
All: BN06H1, G97H, G97F, GR84H, JS00HA, R77H, S80HCF, S80HCR, S80HMF, S93HA, Sabo02H, W13H.
Formicidae (13 equations): BN06HF, GR84F, JS00HF, R77A, S80FCF, S80FCR, S80FMF, S93HF, S93HH, S93HI, BN06H1, G97H, G97F.
Apidae: Sabo02HA.
Braconidae: S93HB.
Halictidae: S93HH.
Ichneumonidae: S93HI.
Pompilidae: S93HP.
Vespidae: S93HV & Sabo02HV.
Lepidoptera
All: BN06L, G97L, JS00L, R77L, S80LCF, S80LCR, S80LMF,S93LA,W13L.
Noctuidea: S93LC, S93LN.
Geometridae: S93LG.
Microlepidoptera: S93LM.
Arctiinae: S93LC.
Value
A dataframe with pollinator body size (mg) is returned for each species from selected equation/s.
