reprod_rate_foetus
gets reproduction rate as function time for foetal development
Contents
Syntax
[R, UE0, Lb, Lp] = reprod_rate_foetus (L, f, p)
Description
Calculates the reproduction rate in number of foetusses per time for an individual of length L and scaled reserve density f
Input
- L: n-vector with length
- f: scalar with functional response
- p: 9 or 10-vector with parameters: kap kapR g kJ kM LT v UHb UHp and optionally sF (default: sF = 1e8 for slow foetal develpment), see comments to DEB3
- Lb0: optional scalar with length at birth (initial value only)
or optional 2-vector with length, L, and scaled maturity, UH < UHp for a juvenile that is now exposed to f, but previously at another f
Output
- R: n-vector with reproduction rates
- UE0: scalar with scaled initial reserve
- Lb: scalar with (volumetric) length at birth
- Lp: scalar with (volumetric) length at puberty
- info: indicator with 1 for success, 0 otherwise
