In RoME: Multiple Checks on MEDITS Trawl Survey Data

Function checking if all the target species in the catch data table (TB) are in Biological data table (TC)

Description

This function verifies the presence of the target species (that is a subset of the all the species caught, reported in TB), in the TC table, where additional information (apart from number and weight) are collected.

Usage

check_species_TBTC(ResultTB,ResultTC,year,DataSpecies,wd,suffix)

Arguments

ResultTB	Catch data table(TB).
ResultTC	Biological data table (TC).
year	reference year for the analysis
DataSpecies	Information related to target species.
wd	Working directory selected by the user.
suffix	Suffix string of the Logfile.

Details

This function gives a warning message, thus the execution is not stopped when some target species are lacking in TC; the user is informed in the Logfile.

Value

The function returns always TRUE, because the outcome of the function is a warning that does not lock the execution of the 'RoME' checks.
