NetworkExtinction (version 0.1.1)

Mostconnected: Extinctions analysis from most connected to less conected nodes in the network

Description

It takes a network and it calculates wich node is the most conected of the network, using total degree. Then remove the most connected node, and calculates the the topological indexes of the network and the number of secundary extintions (how many species have indegree 0, without considered primary producers). After that, remove the nodes that were secondarily extinct in the previous step and recalculate which is the new most connected node and so on, until the number of links in the network is zero.

Usage

Mostconnected(Network)

Value

exports data frame with the characteristics of the network after every extintion. The resulting data frame contains 11 columns that incorporate the topological index, the secondary extinctions, predation release, and total extinctions of the network in each primary extinction.

Arguments

Network

a trophic network of class network
