Calculates the density-independent rate of total egg production \(R_{p.i}\)
(units 1/year) before density dependence, by species. This is obtained by
taking the total rate at which energy is invested in reproduction,
multiplying by the reproductive efficiency erepro
and dividing by the egg
size w_min
, and by a factor of two to account for the two sexes.
mizerRDI(params, n, n_pp, n_other, e_repro, ...)
A matrix of species abundances (species x size).
A vector of the resource abundance by size
A list of abundances for other dynamical components of the ecosystem
An array (species x size) with the energy available for
reproduction as calculated by getERepro()
.
Unused
A numeric vector with the rate of egg production for each species.
Used by getRDD()
to calculate the actual, density dependent rate.
See setReproduction()
for more details.
