PoPS (Pest or Pathogen Spread) model Multiple Runs

Description

A dynamic species distribution model for pest or pathogen spread in forest or agricultural ecosystems. The model is process based meaning that it uses understanding of the effect of weather and other environmental factors on reproduction and survival of the pest/pathogen in order to forecast spread of the pest/pathogen into the future. Run multiple stochastic simulations, propagating uncertainty in parameters, initial conditions, and drivers. The model is process based meaning that it uses understanding of the effect of weather on reproduction and survival of the pest/pathogen in order to forecast spread of the pest/pathogen into the future.

Arguments

`infected_file_list`	paths to raster files with initial infections and standard deviation for each host can be based in 2 formats (a single file with number of hosts or a single file with 2 layers number of hosts and standard deviation).. Units for infections are based on data availability and the way the units used for your host file is created (e.g. percent area, # of hosts per cell, etc.).
`host_file_list`	paths to raster files with number of hosts and standard deviation on those estimates can be based in 2 formats (a single file with number of hosts or a single file with 2 layers number of hosts and standard deviation). The units for this can be of many formats the two most common that we use are either percent area (0 to 100) or # of hosts in the cell. Usually depends on data available and estimation methods.
`total_populations_file`	path to raster file with number of total populations of all hosts and non-hosts. This depends on how your host data is set up. If host is percent area then this should be a raster with values that are 100 anywhere with host. If host file is # of hosts in a cell then this should be a raster with values that are the max of the host raster any where the # of hosts is greater than 0.
`parameter_means`	A vector of the means of the model parameters (reproductive_rate, natural_dispersal_distance, percent_natural_dispersal, anthropogenic_dispersal_distance, natural kappa, anthropogenic kappa, network_min_distance, and network_max_distance). 1x8 vector.
`parameter_cov_matrix`	A covariance matrix from the previous years posterior parameter estimation ordered from (reproductive_rate, natural_dispersal_distance, percent_natural_dispersal, anthropogenic_dispersal_distance, natural kappa, anthropogenic kappa, network_min_distance, and network_max_distance) Should be 8x8 matrix.
`pest_host_table`	The file path to a csv that has these columns in this order: host, susceptibility, mortality rate, and mortality time lag as columns with each row being the species. Host species must be in the same order in the host_file_list, infected_file_list, pest_host_table rows, and competency_table columns. The host column is only used for metadata and labeling output files.
`competency_table`	A csv with the hosts as the first n columns (n being the number of hosts) and the last column being the competency value. Each row is a set of Boolean for host presence and the competency value (between 0 and 1) for that combination of hosts in a cell.

We convert raw precipitation values to coefficients that affect the reproduction and survival of the pest all values in the raster are between 0 and 1.
`precip`	boolean that allows the use of precipitation coefficients to modify spread (TRUE or FALSE)
`precipitation_coefficient_file`	Raster file with precipitation coefficient data for the timestep and time period specified (e.g. if timestep = week and start_date = 2017_01_01 and end_date = 2019_12_31 this file would have 52 * 3 bands = 156 bands with data being weekly precipitation coefficients).
