Overview

About

Maintained by Pierre-Yves HernvannFirst published 2020-03-054 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Biotracers and stomach content analyses are combined in a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate a probabilistic topology matrix (all trophic link probabilities) and a diet matrix (all diet proportions). The package relies on the JAGS software and the 'jagsUI' package to run a Markov chain Monte Carlo approximation of the different variables.
