Animation of the gonadic mass spectra

This function creates an animation of the gonadic mass spectra of the species in the simulation. The gonadic mass spectrum is the size distribution of the total gonadic mass of each species.

Usage

animateGonadSpectra(
  sim,
  species = NULL,
  time_range,
  wlim = c(NA, NA),
  ylim = c(NA, NA),
  power = 0
)

Arguments

sim

A MizerSim object

species

Name or vector of names of the species to be plotted. By default all species are plotted.

time_range

The time range to animate over. Either a vector of values or a vector of min and max time. Default is the entire time range of the simulation.

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 gonadic mass density is plotted as the number density times the per-capita gonadic mass times the weight raised to power. The default power = o gives the gonadic mass density, whereas power = 1 gives the gonadic mass density with respect to logarithmic size bins.

Value

A plotly object
