get_initial_n: Calculate initial population abundances

In mizer: Dynamic Multi-Species Size Spectrum Modelling

Calculate initial population abundances

Description

This function uses the model parameters and other parameters to calculate initial values for the species number densities. These initial abundances are currently quite arbitrary and not close to the steady state. We intend to improve this in the future.

Usage

get_initial_n(params, n0_mult = NULL, a = 0.35)

Arguments

params	The model parameters. An object of type MizerParams.
n0_mult	Multiplier for the abundance at size 0. Default value is kappa/1000.
a	A parameter with a default value of 0.35.

Value

A matrix (species x size) of population abundances.

Examples

init_n <- get_initial_n(NS_params)
