growth_rate: Compute the growth rate

In EcoNum/coral.growth: Use of buoyant weight to compute the growth rate

Description

The determination of the growth rate is a important parameter. Indeed, the growth rate can be used to compare different individuals. There are several methods to compute the growth rate.

Usage

growth_rate(
  skw_t,
  skw_ini,
  date_t,
  date_ini = 0,
  method = c("exponential", "linear", "linear_std")
)

Arguments

skw_t	The weight at time t
skw_ini	The weight at initial time
date_t	The number day at time t
date_ini	The number day at initial time
method	The method to be employed. See the description to know the different methods

Value

The growth rate

Examples

growth_rate(skw_t = 1.2, skw_ini = 1, date_t = 7, date_ini = 0,
method = "exponential")
