For each species, returns the rate at which biomass is lost due to mortality.
Details
This is calculated as
$$ZB_i = \int_{w_0}^{w_{max}} \mu_i(w) N_i(w) w dw$$
where \(\mu_i(w)\) is the mortality rate of an individual of species \(i\)
and weight \(w\) (calculated with getMort
) and \(N_i(w)\) is the
number density of species \(i\) at weight \(w\).
