dRGetMetricsInfo function

Life traits from the ectotherm database

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

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).

Returns

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

Examples

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