dRGetMetricsInfo: Life traits from the ectotherm database

Description

Life traits from the ectotherm database

Usage

dRGetMetricsInfo(
  eq,
  prec = 0.1,
  lowTempLim = 0,
  highTempLimit = 60,
  devLimit = 0.01,
  devThresh = 0.1,
  lifeStage = "all",
  colId = "genSp",
  printOut = FALSE
)

Value

A matrix with one column per organism and one row for each metric. The metrics names are the names of each row.

Arguments

eq

The name of the equation.

prec

The precision for the temperature (default = 0.1 degree celsius).

lowTempLim

The minimum temperature for the metrics (default = 0 degree celsius).

highTempLimit

The maximum temperature for the metrics (default = +60 degree celsius).

devLimit

The development rate considered as null (default = 0.01).

devThresh

The threshold in development rate to compute min and max temperature (default = 0.1).

lifeStage

The life stage on which the life traits should be computed (default = "all"; specify "" to take into account all life stages).

colId

The organism information for each column (default = genSp; choices = "ordersp" for Order, "familysp" for Family, "genussp" for Genus, "species" for species, and "gensp" for Genus and species).

printOut

A logical to print the result (default = FALSE).

Examples

dRGetMetricsInfo(eq = taylor_81)
dRGetMetricsInfo(eq = taylor_81, devThresh = 0.1)
