MARSS (version 3.9)

CSEGriskfigure: Plot Extinction Risk Metrics

Description

Generates a six-panel plot of extinction risk metrics used in Population Viability Analysis (PVA). This is a function used by one of the vignettes in the MARSS-package.

Usage

CSEGriskfigure(data, te = 100, absolutethresh = FALSE, threshold = 0.1, 
  datalogged = FALSE, silent = FALSE, return.model = FALSE, 
  CI.method = "hessian", CI.sim = 1000)

Arguments

data

A data matrix with 2 columns; time in first column and counts in second column. Note time is down rows, which is different than the base MARSS-package functions.

te

Length of forecast period (positive integer)

absolutethresh

Is extinction threshold an absolute number? (T/F)

threshold

Extinction threshold either as an absolute number, if absolutethresh=TRUE, or as a fraction of current population count, if absolutethresh=FALSE.

datalogged

Are the data already logged? (T/F)

silent

Suppress printed output? (T/F)

return.model

Return state-space model as marssMLE object? (T/F)

CI.method

Confidence interval method: "hessian", "parametrc", "innovations", or "none". See MARSSparamCIs.

CI.sim

Number of simulations for bootstrap confidence intervals (positive integer).

Value

If return.model=TRUE, an object of class marssMLE.

Details

Panel 1: Time-series plot of the data. Panel 2: CDF of extinction risk. Panel 3: PDF of time to reach threshold. Panel 4: Probability of reaching different thresholds during forecast period. Panel 5: Sample projections. Panel 6: TMU plot (uncertainty as a function of the forecast).
