Level 2 function that swarms a Colony or MultiColony object - an event where the queen leaves with a proportion of workers to create a new colony (the swarm). The remnant colony retains the other proportion of workers and all drones, and the workers raise virgin queens, of which only one prevails. Location of the swarm is the same as for the remnant or sampled as deviation from the remnant.
swarm(
x,
p = NULL,
year = NULL,
nVirginQueens = NULL,
sampleLocation = TRUE,
radius = NULL,
simParamBee = NULL,
...
)numeric, proportion of workers that will leave with the swarm colony;
if NULL then SimParamBee$swarmP is used.
If input is MultiColony-class,
the input could also be a vector of the same length as the number of colonies. If
a single value is provided, the same value will be applied to all the colonies
numeric, year of birth for virgin queens
integer, the number of virgin queens to be created in the
colony; of these one is randomly selected as the new virgin queen of the
remnant colony. If NULL, the value from simParamBee$nVirginQueens
is used
logical, sample location of the swarm by taking
the current colony location and adding deviates to each coordinate using
rcircle
numeric, radius of a circle within which swarm will go; if
NULL then SimParamBee$swarmRadius is used (which uses
0, so by default swarm does not fly far away)
SimParamBee, global simulation parameters
additional arguments passed to p or nVirginQueens
when these arguments are functions
list with two Colony-class or MultiColony-class,
the swarm and the remnant (see the description what each
colony holds!); both outputs have the swarm event set to TRUE
