calculate.MR | R Documentation |
The function is used to calculate and plot background respiration, absolute and mass-specific metabolic rates.
calculate.MR(slope.data, density = 1000, plot.BR = TRUE, plot.MR.abs = TRUE, plot.MR.mass = TRUE)
slope.data |
a data frame obtained by using the function |
density |
numeric: the density of an animal body (kg/m^{3}) |
plot.BR |
logical: if TRUE, the graph of background respiration rate is plotted |
plot.MR.abs |
logical: if TRUE, the graph of absolute metabolic rate is plotted |
plot.MR.mass |
logical: if TRUE, the graph of mass-specific metabolic rate is plotted |
The function returns a data frame with calculated background respiration, absolute and mass-specific metabolic rates. The data frame is used in the function export.MR
