LIM (version 1.4.7.1)

LIMTakapoto: Linear inverse model specification for the Takapoto atoll planktonic food web.

Description

Linear inverse model specification for the Carbon flux model of the Takapoto atoll planktonic food web

as reconstructed by inverse modelling by Niquil et al. (1998).

The Takapoto Atoll lagoon is located in the French Polynesia of the South Pacific

The food web comprises 7 functional compartments and three external compartments/sinks connected with 32 flows.

Units of the flows are mg C/m2/day

The linear inverse model LIMTakapoto is generated from the file Takapoto.input which can be found in subdirectory /examples/FoodWeb of the package directory

In this subdirectory you will find many foodweb example input files

These files can be read using Read and their output processed by Setup which will produce a linear inverse problem specification similar to LIMTakapoto

Usage

data(LIMTakapoto)

Format

a list of matrices, vectors, names and values that specify the linear inverse model problem.

see the return value of Setup for more information about this list

A more complete description of this structures is in vignette("LIM")
