mountaingoat: mountaingoat Bayesian Network

Description

Using Bayesian networks to map winter habitat for mountain goats in coastal British Columbia, Canada.

Arguments

Value

An object of class bn.fit. Refer to the documentation of bnlearn for details.

Format

A discrete Bayesian network to predict the suitability of habitats for mountain goats. Probabilities were given within the referenced paper. The vertices are:

Distance_Escape_Terrain

(On Escape Terrain, <=150m away, <=300m away, >300m away);

Elevation

(<=500m, <=900m, <=1300m, <=1700m, >1700m);

Forest_Age_Class

(Early, Mid, Mature, Old, Non-Forested);

Location

(Observations, Random));

Slope

(Shallow, Moderate, Steep);

Snow_Zone

(Shallow, Moderate, Deep, Very Deep);

Solar_Insolation

(Very Low, Low, Moderate, High, Very High));
