Calculate the relative dimension of a school

Description

This function calculates the relative school dimension of Diner (2001)

Usage

schoolRelativeDimension(Sv, L, P, Th, theta)

Arguments

Sv	Observed mean volume backscattering strength (Sv) of a school
L	Observed (uncorrected) school length, m
P	Mean depth of school
Th	Minimum Sv data threshold used to detect schools using the SHAPES algorithm
theta	Transducer 3 dB beam width, degrees

Value

Relative school dimension (Nb)
