Description

Do an initial run for prey species without fishing, to calculate parameters in the Predator objects (omegas) that scale the unfished biomass of each prey species.

Usage

1
calibrate(predators, prey, nYears, nSteps)

Arguments

predators

A list of Predator objects

prey

A list of Prey objects

nYears

Number of years for the simulation

nSteps

Number of timesteps per year.

Value

A modified list of predators and prey. In the predators, the @omegas slot, which holds scaling parameters for the ratio of diet preference to unfished biomass for each prey species, has been set. The function also sets D0, the scaled, available prey biomass at unfished levels. In the prey objects, the age-1+ unfished biomass, B0, is set.
