ResourcesByNode: Resources and consumers of nodes

Description

Functions that return the resources and consumers of nodes.

Usage

ResourcesByNode(community) 
ConsumersByNode(community) 
ResourcesAndConsumersByNode(community)
ResourcesOfNodes(community, nodes) 
ConsumersOfNodes(community, nodes) 
TrophicLinksForNodes(community, nodes, node.properties=NULL, 
                     link.properties=NULL)

Arguments

community

an object of class Community.

nodes

either the names or integer indices of nodes.

node.properties

passed to TLPS.

link.properties

passed to TLPS.

Value

Either a vector, a list or a data.frame

Details

ResourcesByNode/ConsumersByNode/ ResourcesAndConsumersByNode all return a list of length NumberOfNodes; list elements are names of nodes that are resources/consumers/resources and/or consumers.

If nodes is of length one then ResourcesOfNodes and ConsumersOfNodes return a vector of resources / consumers. If nodes contains more than one value, then a list of vectors is returned.

TrophicLinksForNodes returns a data.frame containing the columns `resource' and 'consumer' and a row for each trophic link in-to and out-of nodes.
