therMizer: mizer with the effects of temperature on metabolism and encounter rate Mizer: Multi-species size-based modelling in R

Description

The mizer package implements multi-species size-based modelling in R. It has been designed for modelling marine ecosystems.

Details

therMizer expands on the mizer package.

Using therMizer is relatively simple. There are three main stages:

1. Setting the model parameters. This is done by creating an object of class therMizerParams. This includes model parameters such as the life history parameters of each species, and the range of the size spectrum.

2. Running a simulation. This is done by calling the project_therMizer() method on the model parameters. This produces an object of therMizerSim which contains the results of the simulation.

3. Exploring results. After a simulation has been run, the results can be explored using a range of plots and summaries.

See the accompanying vignette for full details of the principles behind mizer and how the package can be used to peform size-based modelling.

See Woodworth-Jefcoats et al. in prep for details on therMizer.
