plotFeedingLevel: Plot the feeding level of species by size

Description

After running a projection, plot the feeding level of each species by size. The feeding level is averaged over the specified time range (a single value for the time range can be used).

Usage

plotFeedingLevel(
  object,
  species = NULL,
  time_range,
  highlight = NULL,
  all.sizes = FALSE,
  include_critical = FALSE,
  ...
)
plotlyFeedingLevel(
  object,
  species = NULL,
  time_range,
  highlight = NULL,
  include_critical,
  ...
)

Arguments

object

An object of class '>MizerSim or '>MizerParams.

species

Name or vector of names of the species to be plotted. By default all species are plotted.

time_range

The time range (either a vector of values, a vector of min and max time, or a single value) to average the abundances over. Default is the final time step. Ignored when called with a '>MizerParams object.

highlight

Name or vector of names of the species to be highlighted.

all.sizes

If TRUE, then feeding level is plotted also for sizes outside a species' size range. Default FALSE.

include_critical

If TRUE, then the critical feeding level is also plotted. Default FALSE.

...

Other arguments (currently unused)

Value

A plot

Details

When called with a '>MizerSim object, the feeding level is averaged over the specified time range (a single value for the time range can be used to plot a single time step). When called with a '>MizerParams object the initial feeding level is plotted.

If include_critical = TRUE then the critical feeding level (the feeding level at which the intake just covers the metabolic cost) is also plotted, with a thinner line. This line should always stay below the line of the actual feeding level, because the species would stop growing at any point where the feeding level drops to the critical feeding level.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
params <- suppressMessages(newMultispeciesParams(NS_species_params_gears, inter))
sim <- project(params, effort=1, t_max=20, t_save = 2, progress_bar = FALSE)
plotFeedingLevel(sim)
plotFeedingLevel(sim, time_range = 10:20, species = c("Cod", "Herring"),
                 include_critical = TRUE)
# }
