Arguments

Par

List - The main parameters controlling/defining this run

modPar

List - Parameters relating to the model mode and computer environment

ordPar

List - Input parameters relating to the ORDs

switches

List - A set of switches/flags used to control optional features of the run

seamask

Raster - land/sea grid, 1km expected.

spadat1

Tibble - Information relating to the colony/SPA

spadat2

Tibble - Information relating to the colony/SPA

spdat

Dataframe - Species-specific parameters

BrdData

Raster - Bird distribution map - derived from GPS data or failing that, a distance-decay model

FrgCompData

Raster - Competition distribution map - derived from GPS data or failing that, a distance-decay model

fltdist_base

Raster - Flight distance by sea, without ORDs. See user guide for details.

FlightGridcorrection

Raster - Flight distance transition layer (gdistance) corrected for distortions relating to the CRS

ORDpoly

Multipolygon (simple features) - The ORD footprints

Value

A list containing tibbles
