Mean dispersal distance for the five disersal kernel implemented.
meanDispDist(name, scal, shap = NULL)
name | a character string that names of the dispersal kernel chosen. |
---|---|
scal | a real positive number giving the scale parameter of the kernel. |
shap | a real positive number giving the shape parameter of the kernel. |
The mean dispersal distance.
Currently, valid names are gaussian
, exponential
,
exponential_power
, k2Dt
and lognormal
.
