Function swifco_rs::systems::carcasses::common_direction_and_seasonal_decay

fn common_direction_and_seasonal_decay(
    durations: Option<Vec<u32>>, 
    within_core: Option<f64>
) -> SystemWrapper

common_direction_and_seasonal_decay( durations=[12, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 4, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12], within_core=0.2, )

Carcass decay with seasonal variations in speed of decay and common direction of deposition.

Carcass persistence is seasonal, with persistence times determined by the durations parameters.

To always reflect the current persistence, each carcass has a persistence score, which starts with 1.0 and is decreased by every step. The carcass is removed when the score reaches 0.0.

Parameters:

durations - duration of carcass presence in ticks for each month of the year (default value based on [Ray_2014]_)

within_core - probability of placing carcass in core of habitat cell
