Takes the density-independent rates \(R_{di}\) of egg production and returns
reduced, density-dependent rates \(R_{dd}\) given as
$$R_{dd} = \frac{R_{di}}{1+(b\ R_{di})^c}$$
SheperdRDD(rdi, species_params, ...)Vector of density-independent reproduction rates \(R_{di}\) for all species.
A species parameter dataframe. Must contain columns
sheperd_b and sheperd_c with the parameters b and c.
