GenerateAnchor: Generate a set of anchored parameters

Description

Generate a set of anchored parameters. It is important that the anchors (i.e. the temperatures used as anchors) encompass the highest and lowest temperatures that are present in nests. The value for each anchor is R * 1E5. The 1E5 factor allows to value to be close to unity.

Usage

GenerateAnchor(temperatures = NULL, nests = NULL, parameters = NULL, number.anchors = 7)

Arguments

temperatures

A vector with temperatures to serve as anchors

nests

Formated nest data or result object obtained from searchR()

parameters

A set of parameters value

number.anchors

Number of anchors

Value

A vector with parameters
