Compute the total availability of egg-laying habitats, $Q$

Usage

compute_Q(habitat_matrix, search_weights)

Arguments

habitat_matrix

the membership matrix, $N$

search_weights

the habitat search weights, ${\omega }_q$

Value

a vector of describing habitat availability, $Q$, of length nPatches

Details

The availability of the habitats that we have defined in the model, denoted $Q$, sums search weights, ${\omega }_q$, by patch using the habitat membership matrix, $N$, and we can compute $$Q=N\cdot {\omega }_q.$$
