translate_island_ontogeny: Translate user-friendly ontogeny codes to numerics

In xieshu95/Test-Trasie: Dynamical Assembly of Islands by Speciation, Immigration and Extinction

Description

This function simulates islands with given cladogenesis, extinction, Kprime, immigration and anagenesis parameters. If a single parameter set is provided (5 parameters) it simulates islands where all species have the same macro-evolutionary process. If two paramater sets (10 parameters) are provided, it simulates islands where two different macro-evolutionary processes operate, one applying to type 1 species and other to type 2 species.

Returns R list object that contains the simulated islands.

Usage

translate_island_ontogeny(island_ontogeny)

Arguments

island_ontogeny

a string describing the type of island ontogeny. Can be "const", "beta" for a beta function describing area through time, or "linear" for a linear function

Value

Numeric, 0 for null-ontogeny, 1 for linear decrease and 2 for beta function
