movement {embryogrowth}

Analyze movement recorded within a nest with an accelerometer datalogger

Description

This function is used to evaluate significant movement within a nest.

Usage

movement(
  x = stop("data.frame must be provided"),
  col.time = "Time",
  col.x = "x",
  col.y = "y",
  col.z = "z",
  NumberRecordBeforeEmergence = 1900,
  k = 4,
  Windowsize = 15
)
