Neighborhood Seed Predation Grid

This grid is created by the Neighborhood Seed Predation and Neighborhood Seed Predation (linked) behaviors. This grid stores the seed rain before predation and the amount of seeds eaten. The grid resolution must match the Dispersed Seeds grid. All data is stored raw, no conversion to per hectare amounts.

Data in the grid

Data member nameDescription
Pre-predation seeds for species xNumber of seeds of species x in the grid cell before predation. Note that if a species is not subject to seed predation, its value may show up here as zero despite having seeds present. Its seeds are not missing, just ignored.
Proportion seeds eaten for species xProportion of the seeds of species x eaten this timestep, as a value between 0 and 1.
