Evaluating Conservation Reserves
This package serves as a static repository for code and methods referenced in Carlisle et al. 2018. Some functions in this package (i.e., simReserve) have been further developed as part of the ecoinfo package.
This package contains functions (and example data) that aid in evaluating the performance of a conservation reserve in protecting the suitable habitat of species of conservation interest. This package was designed specifically to assess conservation reserves created for an umbrella species--hence the name.
version 0.1.0: Contains two functions (sumRaster and simReserve) and three example datasets (demo.sdm, demo.rsv, and demo.msk).
Tutorial: See UmbrellaMethodsDemo.R in the top-level directory for a tutorial use of the package including example data.
Bugs: Submit bug reports or suggestions as Issues.
To install and load umbrella in R, run the following (requires the devtools package):
devtools::install_github("jcarlis3/umbrella@master")
require(umbrella)
