initialise_default_Unscaled_nuts function

Default model parameters as in Schneider et al. 2016

Initialise the default parametrisation for the model for Schneider et al. (2016).

initialise_default_Unscaled_nuts(model, L.mat, temperature = 20)

Arguments

• model: an object of class ATN (Rcpp_Unscaled_nuts.
• L.mat: numeric matrix, probability of a consumer to attack and capture an encountered resource. See create_Lmatrix.
• temperature: numeric, ambient temperature of the ecosystem in Celsius.

Returns

An object of class ATN (Rcpp_Unscaled_nuts) with default parameters as in Schneider et al. (2016).

Examples

library(ATNr)
set.seed(123)
masses <- runif(20, 10, 100) #body mass of species
L <- create_Lmatrix(masses, 10, Ropt = 10)
L[L > 0] <- 1
mod <- create_model_Unscaled_nuts(20, 10, 3, masses, L)
mod <- initialise_default_Unscaled_nuts(mod, L)
