get_breadth {rTPC}

Estimate thermal performance breadth of a thermal performance curve

Description

Estimate thermal performance breadth of a thermal performance curve

Usage

get_breadth(model, level = 0.8)

Arguments

model

nls model object that contains a model of a thermal performance curve

level

proportion of maximum rate over which thermal performance breadth is calculated

Details

Thermal performance breadth is calculated as the range of temperatures over which a curve's rate is at least 0.8 of peak. This defaults to a proportion of 0.8 but can be changed using the level argument.

Value

Numeric estimate of thermal performance breadth (in ºC)
