Mizer provides a range of functions to calculate indicators from a MizerSim object.
A list of available indicator functions for MizerSim objects is given in the table below
| Function | Returns | Description |
getProportionOfLargeFish() |
A vector with values at each time step. | Calculates the proportion of large fish through time. The threshold value can be specified. It is possible to calculation the proportion of large fish based on either length or weight. |
getMeanWeight() |
A vector with values at each saved time step. | The mean weight of the community through time. This is calculated as the total biomass of the community divided by the total abundance. |
getMeanMaxWeight() |
Depends on the measure argument. If measure = <U+201C>both<U+201D> then you get a matrix with two columns, one with values by numbers, the other with values by biomass at each saved time step. If measure = <U+201C>numbers<U+201D> or <U+201C>biomass<U+201D> you get a vector of the respective values at each saved time step | The mean maximum weight of the community through time. This can be calculated by numbers or by biomass. See the help file for more details. |
getCommunitySlope() |
A data.frame with four columns: time step, slope, intercept and the coefficient of determination. | Calculates the slope of the community abundance spectrum through time by performing a linear regression on the logged total numerical abundance and logged body size. |
