Description

Get nutritional information for aquatic animals from the Aquatic Foods Composition Database. This function uses the hierarchical approach described in Golden et al 2021, where nutritional content is assigned based on the closest taxa possible.

Usage

species_nutrients(sci_name, prep, part, nut)

Arguments

sci_name	A character vector of species scientific names
prep	A character vector of fish preparation types
part	A character vector of fish parts
nut	A character vector of nutrients to search for

Value

A dataframe containing species, nutrient, nutrient units, nutritional value (value), closest taxa match (taxa_match), number of observations which nutritional value was extracted (count), standard error (se), startard deviation (ssd) and confidence intervals

Examples

# Get nutritional info
# species_nutrients(sci_name = c("Salmo salar", "Oreochromis niloticus"), prep = "raw", part = "muscle tissue", nut = c("Iron, total", "Zinc"))
