predict predicts the probabilities for given combinations of abundance and energ from the “ecosystem structure function” R(n,ε)

1	predictESF(esf, abund, power)

`esf`	A fitted object of class `meteESF`
`abund`	A vector of abundances
`power`	A vector of metabolic rates

Uses a fitted object of class meteESF and user supplied values of abundance and power to predict values of the ESF

a data.frame with abundance, power, and the predicted value of the ESF
