v1.0.0

v 1.0.0 (27 Sep 2024)

Enhancements

• A vignette has been added using epizootic to model house finch conjunctivitis.
• Examples have been added to two of the functions.
• aspatial_siri now runs much faster.
• check_aspatial_siri_inputs now checks inputs much more thoroughly.
• There are now unit tests to ensure that no dispersers are created or destroyed.
• New tests have been added for DiseaseModel.

Bug fixes

• Broken links to other packages have been fixed.
• siri_model functions can now handle one active population.
• disease_simulator no longer breaks when demographic rates are given as lists and masks are given as vectors.
• Non-breeding season length is now calculated correctly.
• disease_dispersal can now handle the case when dispersal does not change over time.
• disease_dispersal was not working properly when there was density dependent dispersal and matrix-formatted dispersal data. This is now fixed.

v 0.2.1

• The aspatial_siri function now kills off populations at or below the abundance threshold (previously it killed off populations below the abundance threshold only)
• The disease_dispersal function can now handle the case when one or more segments of the population does not disperse.
• Important bug fix: the number of occupied indices now updates more frequently within the
  disease_simulator function, which allows species range to expand properly.
• Documentation update: all references to features in development that are not yet
  implemented have been removed.

Full Changelog: v0.1.1...v0.2.1
