Get parameter sets
Description
Gets parameter sets from published studies with 3PG
Usage
get_parameters(mode = "overview", sp_names = NULL)
Arguments
mode |
must be one of the following: full, overview, source, comments, parameters, sizeDist |
sp_names |
names of the species. The 'sp_names' must be either a scientific name
(Picea abies). If passing parameters or sizeDist to mode, it also possible
to use a scientific name with a integer, which is the value of parset_id, e.g.
Picea abies 37.
If unsure, consider using first the option |
Details
This function access the parameter database stored in the package,
which is named i_parameters_lit
, and also accessible without this function.
If mode = overview
, a simplified table with
all existing parameter sets will be returned. A extended version including information
about to the source and remarks can be obtained with mode = comments
.
A complete description of the source is returned with mode = source
.
The full version of this table (species,source, comments,
parameters) will be returned if mode = full
. Alternatively, with mode = parameters
and mode = sizeDist
, it is possible to obtain parameters in the format
required by run_3PG
.
Passing species names with sp_names
will selecting from the table
the desired species. Please note that one species might have more than one
available parameter sets, unless species names contain the parset_id value.
Please also note that mode = source
is not compatible with sp_names
.
The parameter sets were obtained from published studies. For basic information about this
dataset check in i_parameters_lit
. Relevant information about
the parameter sets and the corresponding studies is provided in the table.
For further information, please consider checking the original publications.
Value
a data frame with parameter sets for all available species, or only the
requested species, if sp_names
is not null.
