In colemonnahan/sraplus:

Description

Draw samples from the prior distribution as defined by biological parameters from FishLife and initial depletion distribution.

Usage

draw.priors(N, penalties, Kprior, Catch, Taxon, Kscale = 2)

Arguments

N	Number of draws
penalties	A list of penalties, see ?run.SIR for more information.
Kprior	Maybe a multiplier on K?
Catch	Vector of catch
Taxon	A list with taxonomic information, including 'Class', 'Order', 'Family', 'Genus', 'Species'. Any blanks will be converted to 'predictive' internally when querying FishLife.
Kscale	Scalar to control the initial biomass which is generated as runif(N, Carry/Kscale, Carry*Kscale) where Carry=Kprior*max(Catch).

Value

A list that contains 'draws', a data.frame with N random draws from all priors, and 'Taxon' which is a character string that is returned from the FishLife query match.
