NS_par: North Sea data

In LeMaRns: Length-Based Multispecies Analysis by Numerical Simulation

Description

Data for the 21 species in the North Sea version of the LeMans model.

Usage

NS_par

Format

A data frame with 21 rows and 8 variables, including:

species_names

A numeric or character vector of length nfish that denotes the names of the species in the model.

Linf

A numeric vector of length nfish representing the asymptotic length of each species (cm).

W_a

A numeric vector of length nfish representing the parameter a in the length-weight conversion.

W_b

A numeric vector of length nfish representing the parameter b in the length-weight conversion.

k

A numeric vector of length nfish representing the von Bertalanffy growth parameter (1/yr) for each species.

Lmat

A numeric vector of length nsc representing the length at which 50% of the individuals are mature (cm).

a

A numeric value representing the density independent part of the hockey-stick recruitment curve.

b

A numeric value representing the density dependent part of the hockey-stick recruitment curve.
