Estimate thermal performance breadth of a thermal performance curve

Usage

get_breadth(model, level = 0.8)

Arguments

model: nls model object that contains a model of a thermal performance curve
level: proportion of maximum rate over which thermal performance breadth is calculated

Value

Numeric estimate of thermal performance breadth (in ºC)

Details

Thermal performance breadth is calculated as the range of temperatures over which a curve's rate is at least 0.8 of peak. This defaults to a proportion of 0.8 but can be changed using the level argument.
