Computing measures of sensitivity


Description

Computing measures of sensitivity

Usage

compute_sensitivity(
  data,
  varnames = list(Par = "Par", test1 = "test1", test2 = "test2"),
  test1_ref,
  test2_ref
)

Arguments

data

Dataframe with output from sensitivity_analysis()

varnames

Variable names

test1_ref

Reference value for parameter

test2_ref

Reference value for parameter

Value

compute_sensitivity calculates two sets of sensitivity measures: parameter effect (Bauerle et al., 2014), and control coefficient (Capaldo & Pandis, 1997). This function is useful in determining how much a given input (assumed or otherwise) can affect the model output and conclusions. Particularly useful if a given parameter is unknown during a fitting or modeling process.

Examples

# Read in your data
# Note that this data is coming from data supplied by the package
# hence the complicated argument in read.csv()
# This dataset is a CO2 by light response curve for a single sunflower
data <- read.csv(system.file("extdata", "A_Ci_Q_data_1.csv",
  package = "photosynthesis"
))

# Define a grouping factor based on light intensity to split the ACi
# curves
data$Q_2 <- as.factor((round(data$Qin, digits = 0)))

# Convert leaf temperature to K
data$T_leaf <- data$Tleaf + 273.15

# Run a sensitivity analysis on gamma_star and mesophyll conductance
# at 25 Celsius for one individual curve
pars <- analyze_sensitivity(
  data = data[data$Q_2 == 1500, ],
  funct = fit_aci_response,
  varnames = list(
    A_net = "A",
    T_leaf = "T_leaf",

# Compute measures of sensitivity

)
# Plot control coefficients
ggplot(par2, aes(y = CE_gamma_star25, x = CE_g_mc25, colour = V_cmax)) +
  geom_point() +
  theme_bw()
# Note that in this case a missing point appears due to an infinity
