Construct a per-species wind-speed vulnerability curve

Bundles a species code, its maximum cohort age, and a set of wind-speed -> mortality-probability pairs into a single object. One or more of these is passed to Hurricane via WindSpeedVulnerabilities.

Usage

windSpeedVulnerability(species, maxAge, mortality)

Arguments

species

Character. Species code (e.g. "poputrem").

maxAge

Integer. Maximum cohort age considered.

mortality

Named numeric vector mapping wind-speed thresholds (names) to mortality probabilities in [0, 1] (values). Names will be coerced to numeric.

Value

A list of class "WindSpeedVulnerability".

Examples

v <- windSpeedVulnerability(
  species = "poputrem",
  maxAge = 60,
  mortality = c("60" = 0.05, "75" = 0.18, "110" = 0.75, "140" = 1.0)
)
