permaBN: permaBN Bayesian Network

Description

PermaBN: A Bayesian Network framework to help predict permafrost thaw in the Arctic.

Value

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

Format

A discrete Bayesian network to simulate permafrost thaw in the continuous permafrost region of the Arctic. The probabilities were given within the referenced paper. The vertices are:
