Integral Projection Models

Flexibly implements Integral Projection Models using a mathematical(ish) syntax. This package will not help with the vital rate modeling process, but will help convert those regression models into an IPM. 'ipmr' handles density dependence and environmental stochasticity, with a couple of options for implementing the latter. In addition, provides functions to avoid unintentional eviction of individuals from models. Additionally, provides model diagnostic tools, plotting functionality, stochastic/deterministic simulations, and analysis tools. Integral projection models are described in depth by Easterling et al. (2000) , Merow et al. (2013) , Rees et al. (2014) , and Metcalf et al. (2015) . Williams et al. (2012) discuss the problem of unintentional eviction.
