caribouMetrics: Models and Metrics of Boreal Caribou Demography and Habitat Selection

Caribou demography

Functions for predicting boreal caribou demographic rates and projecting population growth

bayesianScenariosWorkflow()
Run the Bayesian population model for multiple parameter sets
bayesianTrajectoryWorkflow()
Bayesian population model for boreal caribou
betaNationalPriors()
Get prior parameters for Bayesian Beta demographic rate models
caribouPopGrowth()
Caribou demographic model
compareTrajectories()
Summarize results of Bayesian demographic model in tables
compositionBiasCorrection()
Calculate bias correction term for calf:cow composition survey.
dataFromSheets()
Demographic data from Google sheet
demographicProjectionApp()
Run the Bayesian caribou demographic projection app
estimateBayesianRates()
Create summary table of demographic rates from survival and recruitment surveys
estimateNationalRate() estimateNationalRates()
Sample demographic rates
getNationalCoefficients() sampleNationalCoefs() subsetNationalCoefs()
Sample demographic regression model coefficients
getScenarioDefaults()
Default parameters for simulation of example demographic trajectories.
plotCompareTrajectories()
Plot Bayesian population model results
plotSurvivalSeries()
Plot survival time series
plotTrajectories()
TO DO: document plotTrajectories
popGrowthTableJohnsonECCC
Population growth model table for Johnson models
simulateObservations()
Simulate observations
convertTrajectories() summarizeTrajectories() simulateTrajectoriesFromPosterior()
Format trajectory tables
trajectoriesFromBayesian()
Get trajectories from a Bayesian model result
trajectoriesFromNational()
Get a set of simulation results from the national demographic model
trajectoriesFromSummary()
Projections of population growth from demographic model summaries.
trajectoriesFromSummaryForApp()
Demographic projections for cases with no change in demographic rates over time. This is the method used (so far) in the demography app. TO DO: Consider removing and replacing with call to trajectoriesFromSummary.
