random_species function

Generate random species distributions in space

This function generates random species distributions in geographic space as extent of occurrence range polygons based on convex hulls of random points.

random_species(n, species, pol, ...)

Arguments

• n: vector of one or more elements to choose from, or a positive integer.
• species: the desired number of species.
• pol: the vector polygon of the study area for determining the species distributions
• ...: Further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Returns

A vector polygon of species' extent of occurrence ranges.
