Estimate competitiveness of sterile males

Usage

sit_competitiveness(
  x,
  following_releases = sit_revents(x, type = "areal"),
  following_days = 7,
  residual_fertility = 0.01,
  species = NULL
)

Arguments

x

A sit object.

following_releases

A sit_release object with a subset of release events or missing (default) for all release events. Use in combination with following_days to filter surveys of the target populations within a given number of days after release. Note that counts of wild populations will always be included in the results with a value of NA in pop_col.

following_days

Integer or missing (default). Number of days after releases to return, if following_releases is not missing.

residual_fertility

Numeric. Default: 0.05.

species

Character. Filter results for a given species or ignore the species if missing.

Value

A numeric value.
