exponential_dispersal_kernel: Negative exponential dispersal kernel

In steps-dev/steps: Spatially- and Temporally-Explicit Population Simulator

Negative exponential dispersal kernel

Description

This function determines the proportion of redistribution based on distance.

Usage

exponential_dispersal_kernel(distance_decay = 0.5, normalize = FALSE)

Arguments

distance_decay	(exponential dispersal parameter) controls the rate at which the population disperses with distance
normalize	(exponential dispersal parameter) should the normalising constant be used - default is FALSE.

Value

An object of class dispersal_function

Examples

## Not run: 
dists <- seq(0, 100, 1)

exp_dispersal_fun <- exponential_dispersal_kernel(distance_decay = 50)

plot(dists, exp_dispersal_fun(dists), type = 'l')

## End(Not run)
