Retrieve model estimates and plot diagnostics

diagnose(dir, fit, prediction_grid)

Arguments

dir

A directory location where results and figures will be saved.

fit

List created by the sdmTMB:: fit function.

prediction_grid

The prediction grid for the survey that sdmTMB will use to make model predictions to.

Details

Parameter definitions:

  • Range: A derived parameter that defines the distance at which two points are effectively independent (actually about 13% correlated). If the share_range argument is changed to FALSE then the spatial and spatiotemporal ranges will be unique, otherwise the default is for both to share the same range.

  • Phi: Observation error scale parameter (e.g., SD in Gaussian).

  • sigma_O: Standard deviation of the spatial process ("Omega").

  • sigma_E: Standard deviation of the spatiotemporal process ("Epsilon").
