10 LandWeb_output Module
10.1 Module Overview
10.1.2 Module inputs and parameters
Table 10.1 shows the full list of module inputs.
| objectName | objectClass | desc | sourceURL |
|---|---|---|---|
| cohortData | data.table | age cohort-biomass table hooked to pixel group map by pixelGroupIndex at succession time step, this is imported from forest succession module. |
NA |
| fireReturnInterval | Raster | A raster layer that is a factor raster, with at least 1 column called fireReturnInterval, representing the fire return interval in years. | NA |
| pixelGroupMap | RasterLayer | updated community map at each succession time step | NA |
| rasterToMatch | RasterLayer | this raster contains two pieces of information: Full study area with fire return interval attribute. | NA |
| rstTimeSinceFire | Raster | a time since fire raster layer | NA |
| species | data.table | a table that of invariant species traits with adjusted values | https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dcyr/LANDIS-II_IA_generalUseFiles/master/speciesTraits.csv |
| sppColorVect | character | A named vector of colors to use for plotting. The names must be in sim$speciesEquivalency[[sim$sppEquivCol]], and should also contain a color for ‘Mixed’ |
NA |
| sppEquiv | data.table | table of species equivalencies. See LandR::sppEquivalencies_CA. |
NA |
| speciesLayers | RasterStack | biomass percentage raster layers by species in Canada species map | http://tree.pfc.forestry.ca/kNN-Species.tar |
| standAgeMap | RasterLayer | stand age map in study area, default is Canada national stand age map | http://tree.pfc.forestry.ca/kNN-StructureStandVolume.tar |
| studyArea | SpatialPolygonsDataFrame | multipolygon to use as the study area, with attribute LTHFC describing the fire return interval. Defaults to a square shapefile in Southwestern Alberta, Canada. | NA |
| studyAreaLarge | SpatialPolygonsDataFrame | Polygon to use as the parametrisation study area. Note that studyAreaLarge is only used for parameter estimation, and can be larger than the actual study area used for LandR simulations (e.g., larger than studyArea in LandR Biomass_core). |
NA |
| studyAreaReporting | SpatialPolygonsDataFrame | multipolygon (typically smaller/unbuffered than studyArea) to use for plotting/reporting. Defaults to an area in Southwestern Alberta, Canada. | NA |
| summaryPeriod | numeric | a numeric vector contains the start year and end year of summary | NA |
Provide a summary of user-visible parameters (Table 10.2)
| paramName | paramClass | default | min | max | paramDesc |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| mixedType | numeric | 2 | NA | NA | How to define mixed stands: 1 for any species admixture; 2 for deciduous > conifer. See ?vegTypeMapGenerator. |
| sppEquivCol | character | LandWeb | NA | NA | The column in sim$specieEquivalency data.table to use as a naming convention |
| summaryInterval | numeric | 50 | NA | NA | This describes summary interval for this module |
| vegLeadingProportion | numeric | 0.8 | 0 | 1 | a number that define whether a species is leading for a given pixel |
| .plotInitialTime | numeric | 0 | NA | NA | This describes the simulation time at which the first plot event should occur |
| .plotInterval | numeric | 1 | NA | NA | This describes the simulation time interval between plot events |
| .plots | character | object | NA | NA | Passed to types in Plots (see ?Plots). There are a few plots that are made within this module, if set. Note that plots (or their data) saving will ONLY occur at end(sim). If NA, plotting is turned off completely (this includes plot saving). |
| .useCache | logical | FALSE | NA | NA | Should this entire module be run with caching activated? This is generally intended for data-type modules, where stochasticity and time are not relevant |
