mod_random_clust_sim {BoundaryStats}

Modified random cluster neutral landscape model

Description

Simulates a neutral landscape of the same extent and resolution as the input raster, with the same distribution of values.

Usage

mod_random_clust_sim(x, p)

Arguments

x

A SpatRaster object.

p

The proportion of cells to be marked in percolated raster. Higher values of p produce larger clusters.

Value

A SpatRaster object with boundary elements.

Examples

data(grassland)
grassland <- terra::rast(grassland_matrix, crs = grassland_crs)
terra::ext(grassland) <- grassland_ext

simulation <- mod_random_clust_sim(grassland, p = 0.6)
terra::plot(simulation)
