devRateIBMdataBase: Forecast ectotherm phenology as a function of temperature and development rate models available in the package database

Description

Forecast ectotherm phenology as a function of temperature and development rate models available in the package database

Usage

devRateIBMdataBase(
  tempTS,
  timeStepTS,
  eq,
  species,
  lifeStages,
  numInd = 10,
  stocha,
  timeLayEggs = 1
)

Value

A list with three elements: the table of phenology for each individual, the models used (nls objects), and the time series for temperature.

Arguments

tempTS

The temperature time series (a vector).

timeStepTS

The time step of the temperature time series (a numeric with 1 = one day).

eq

The name of the equation (e.g., lactin2_95).

species

The species for the model (e.g., "Sesamia nonagrioides").

lifeStages

The life stages available for the species and the model.

numInd

The number of individuals for the simulation (an integer).

stocha

The standard deviation of a Normal distribution centered on development rate to create stochasticity among individuals (a numeric).

timeLayEggs

The delay between emergence of adults and the time where females lay eggs in time steps (a numeric).

Examples

forecastLactin2_95 <- devRateIBMdataBase(
  tempTS = rnorm(n = 20, mean = 20, sd = 1),
  timeStepTS = 10,
  eq = lactin2_95,
  species = "Sesamia nonagrioides",
  lifeStages = c("eggs", "larva", "pupa"),
  numInd = 10,
  stocha = 0.015,
  timeLayEggs = 1
)
