kindisperse - Simulate and Estimate Close-Kin Dispersal Kernels
Functions for simulating and estimating kinship-related
dispersal. Based on the methods described in M. Jasper, T.L.
Schmidt., N.W. Ahmad, S.P. Sinkins & A.A. Hoffmann (2019)
<doi:10.1111/1755-0998.13043> "A genomic approach to inferring
kinship reveals limited intergenerational dispersal in the
yellow fever mosquito". Assumes an additive variance model of
dispersal in two dimensions, compatible with Wright's
neighbourhood area. Simple and composite dispersal simulations
are supplied, as well as the functions needed to estimate
parent-offspring dispersal for simulated or empirical data, and
to undertake sampling design for future field studies of
dispersal. For ease of use an integrated Shiny app is also
included.
