runBiosplit: Run the biosplit model for a year
In sidjai/biosplit: Model for continental seasonal migration of insects

Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Simulates continental moth migration over the course of a year. Requires HYSPLIT to be installed.

1 2	runBiosplit(cfg, plotOutputFreq = 10, emitMethod = c("particle", "emitimes")[1])

`cfg`	The configuration object returned by `loadConfig` or from loading the cfg.RData in the config.txt location
`plotOutputFreq`	The freqency of raw hysplit plots to produce and save, so a value of 10 would mean making only the 10th simulation plot.
`emitMethod`	How should teh program emit the moths into the hysplit model? particle creates a particle dump file for intialization while emitimes makes a EMITIMES file with all the emmisions at 500 m over 1 hr

Starts a population of eggs at an over wintering area (source area) and grows them through the cycles of maturation, flight, reproduction and death until the simulation end date in the cfg. For details on the biological equations used see 'docs/BiologicalEqs.docx'. The flight is handled using a passive dispersion model during the night with the HYSPLIT program from NOAA, http://www.arl.noaa.gov/HYSPLIT_info.php

Time stamp. if called for in cfg, also writes the weekly snapshots of populations, in .txt and .nc format. It also outputs a final nc file after everything is completed.
