macrophytes Bayesian Network
Description
Mechanical removal of macrophytes in freshwater ecosystems: Implications for ecosystem structure and function.
Format
A discrete Bayesian network o assess the implications of macrophyte removal on interrelated ecosystem properties across a wide range of environmental conditions. The probabilities were given within the referenced paper (missing probabilities were given a uniform distribution). The vertices are:
- BenthicFishForaging
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Disturbance
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Ecosystem
(Standing floating, Standing submerged, Flowing submerged);
- EcosystemServices
(Flooding, Birds, Nutrient retention, Angling, Swimming, Boating, Hydropower, Irrigation, Invasive species);
- EpiphyticInvertebrates
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Flow
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Light
(Low, High);
- NutrientLoading
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Phytoplankton
(Low, Moderate, High);
- PiscivorousFish
(Present, Absent);
- PiscivorousFishPredation
(Low, High)
- PlanktivorousFish
(Low, High);
- PlantRemoval
(None, Partial, Full;)
- Resources
(Low, Moderate, High);
- Zooplankton
(Low, Moderate, High);
Value
An object of class bn.fit
