rand_mpa: rand_mpa

In remi-daigle/NetworkConnectR: A Package to Assess Connectivity in Networks of MPAs

rand_mpa

Description

Randomly generates a network of MPAs

Usage

rand_mpa(grid, areas, adj_edgelist, buff_edgelist = adj_edgelist, max_edge = 4)

Arguments

grid	is a grid covering your planning area
areas	is a vector of mpa area coverage in m^2
adj_edgelist	is the self-intersecting neighbours edgelist of grid, could be done 'in function' but that would slow it down. Used to create contiguous multi-grid cell MPA's.
buff_edgelist	is the intersecting edgelist of grid with a buffered grid, could be done 'in function' but that would slow it down. Used to guarantee minimum distances (buffer distance) between MPAs.
max_edge	is a numeric constraint that represents the largest number of protected neighbouring cells that an unprotected cell can have before it becomes protected itself if the MPA still needs to 'grow'.
