Plot the abundance spectra

Plots the number density multiplied by a power of the weight, with the power specified by the power argument.

plotSpectra(
  object,
  species = NULL,
  time_range,
  wlim = c(NA, NA),
  ylim = c(NA, NA),
  power = 1,
  biomass = TRUE,
  total = FALSE,
  plankton = TRUE,
  background = TRUE,
  highlight = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

object	An object of class MizerSim or MizerParams.
species	Name or vector of names of the species to be plotted. By default all species are plotted.
time_range	The time range (either a vector of values, a vector of min and max time, or a single value) to average the abundances over. Default is the final time step. Ignored when called with a MizerParams object.
wlim	A numeric vector of length two providing lower and upper limits for the w axis. Use NA to refer to the existing minimum or maximum.
ylim	A numeric vector of length two providing lower and upper limits for the y axis. Use NA to refer to the existing minimum or maximum. Any values below 1e-20 are always cut off.
power	The abundance is plotted as the number density times the weight raised to power. The default power = 1 gives the biomass density, whereas power = 2 gives the biomass density with respect to logarithmic size bins.
biomass	Obsolete. Only used if power argument is missing. Then biomass = TRUE is equivalent to power=1 and biomass = FALSE is equivalent to power=0
total	A boolean value that determines whether the total over all species in the system is plotted as well. Default is FALSE
plankton	A boolean value that determines whether plankton is included. Default is TRUE.
background	A boolean value that determines whether background species are included. Ignored if the model does not contain background species. Default is TRUE.
highlight	Name or vector of names of the species to be highlighted.
...	Other arguments (currently unused)

Value

A ggplot2 object

Details

When called with a MizerSim object, the abundance is averaged over the specified time range (a single value for the time range can be used to plot a single time step). When called with a MizerParams object the initial abundance is plotted.
