| Summary : Determines Species Probabilities Based on Functional Traits
|
Description :
The objective of these functions is to derive a species assemblage that
satisfies a functional trait profile. Restoring resilient ecosystems
requires a flexible framework for selecting assemblages that are based
on the functional traits of species. However, current trait-based
models have been limited to algorithms that can only select species by
optimising specific trait values, and could not elegantly accommodate
the common desire among restoration ecologists to produce functionally
diverse assemblages. We have solved this problem by applying a
non-linear optimisation algorithm that optimises Rao Q, a closed-form
functional trait diversity index that incorporates species abundances,
subject to other linear constraints. This framework generalises
previous models that only optimised the entropy of the community, and
can optimise both functional diversity and entropy simultaneously. This
package can also be used to generate experimental assemblages to test
the effects of community-level traits on community dynamics and
ecosystem function. The method is based on theory discussed in Laughlin
(2014, Ecology Letters) < doi.org/10.1111/ele.12288>.
