Calculates the energy rate (grams/year) available for reproduction after
growth and metabolism have been accounted for.
You would not usually call this
function directly but instead use getERepro(), which then calls this
function unless an alternative function has been registered, see below.
mizerERepro(params, n, n_pp, n_other, t, e, ...)A two dimensional array (species x size) holding $$\psi_i(w)E_{r.i}(w)$$
where \(E_{r.i}(w)\) is the rate at which energy becomes available for
growth and reproduction, calculated with mizerEReproAndGrowth(),
and \(\psi_i(w)\) is the proportion of this energy that is used for
reproduction. This proportion is taken from the params object and is
set with setReproduction().
A MizerParams object
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
The time for which to do the calculation (Not used by standard mizer rate functions but useful for extensions with time-dependent parameters.)
A two dimensional array (species x size) holding the energy available
for reproduction and growth as calculated by mizerEReproAndGrowth().
Unused
By default getERepro() calls mizerERepro(). However you can
replace this with your own alternative reproduction rate function. If
your function is called "myERepro" then you register it in a MizerParams
object params with
params <- setRateFunction(params, "ERepro", "myERepro")
Your function will then be called instead of mizerERepro(), with the
same arguments.
