Oyster_growth_run: Runs the entire growth model

In nielsjdewinter/ShellTrace: Bivalve Growth and Trace Element Accumulation Model

Description

Function that runs all functions contained in Step 2-4 of the growth model. de Winter, N. J. (2017) <doi:10.5194/gmd-2017-137>

Usage

Oyster_growth_run(LOG=T, raw_data, image_length, season_length=250,
  Xstep=0.1, Tstep=1, Oyster_height, Oyster_length,
  name_file="Oyster_growth_model")

Arguments

LOG	Boolean parameter specifying if a LOG should be printed detailing the parameters entered into this function
raw_data	Numeric data frame containing the X- and Y-coordinates digitized in Adobe Illustrator or another image processing software
image_length	Measured maximum length of the area of the cross section that is represented in "raw_data"
season_length	Length (in days) of the growth season of the studied bivalve
Xstep	The step size (dx) in X-direction used to interpolate coordinates of shell increments
Tstep	The step size (dt) in time (days) used to interpolate the existing shell increments
Oyster_height	Measured maximum height of the shell
Oyster_length	Measured maximum length of the shell in anterio-posterior direction
name_file	string indicating the name that should be added to all exported model results

Details

Runs Oyser_run_sec2, Oyser_run_sec3, Oyser_run_sec4 and Oyster_Export

Value

Matrix containing all parameters of the shell calculated per sub-increment and CSV file containing this matrix

subincr_matrix

Revised version of the "incr_matrix" data frame that contains characteristics calculated for every sub-increment
