Elasticity and Sensitivity of the Vital rates
This workflow calculates the Elasticity and Sensitivity of population growth rate with respect to various vital rates. The goal in both cases is to determine which vital rates has/ve the most influence on population growth rate (?).
Elasticity and Sensitivity: Sensitivity and elasticity analyses are prospective analyses.
a) The sensitivity matrix: The sensitivity describes the effect on ? of changes in vital rates of the matrix. The derivative tells what would happened to ? if aij was to change, not whether, or in what direction, or how much, aij actually change (Caswell 2001).
b) The Elasticity matrix: The elasticities of ? with respect to the vital rate are often interpreted as the “relative contributions” of each of the vital rates to ? (de Kroon et al 1986). For further information see: de Kroon, et al., 1986. and Caswell 2001.
This Rscript extract sensitivities and elansticities of the vital rates from a decomposed matrix. This code was developed by R. Salguero-Gomez (Max Planck Institute) modified after E. Jongejans (Nijmegen University). Last modified: Mar 29th, 2012, Modified for Taverna by Maria Paula Balcazar-Vargas.
