seedGermBasicGRASS: Basic seed germination

In rkrug/seedGerm: Spatial seed germination routines

Description

Basic and deterministic germination based on soil seed bank

Usage

  seedGermBasicGRASS(input, disturbance, suitability,
    pGermination, pGerminationDep, seedlToDcCuts,
    dcClasses, pGerm, noSeedlings, dcSeedlings, overwrite =
    FALSE)

Arguments

input	name of layer contraining number of seeds in soil seed bank
disturbance	name of disturbance layer for species
suitability	name of suitability layer for species
pGermination	proportion of seeds which will try to germinate, i.e. either germinate or are removed from soil seed bank in the process
pGerminationDep	R function to determine actual probability of germination in dependanc of suitability and disturbance in cell
seedlToDcCuts	cuts for conversion of number of germinated seedlings to density classes (parameter$res$cellSize * species$WfWdc$seedling / 10000)
dcClasses	name of density classes (pecies$WfWdc$dc[length(species$WfWdc$dc):1])
pGerm	name of number of seedlings layer
noSeedlings	output: name of seedlings density class
dcSeedlings	output: name of seedlings density class
overwrite	if TRUE the output file will be overwritten if it exists

Details

Calculates number of seedlings and their density class based on probability that seeds in seed bank germinate and a function

Value

invisible returns name of pGerm layer
