Get Length-Weight Coefficients and Morphological Data for Species

Retrieves and summarizes length-weight relationship coefficients and morphological data by handling both FishBase and SeaLifeBase data in a single workflow.

Usage

getLWCoeffs(taxa_list = NULL, asfis_list = NULL)

Arguments

taxa_list

Character vector of FAO 3-alpha codes

asfis_list

ASFIS list data frame

Value

A list with two elements:

• lw - A data frame with length-weight coefficients:

  • catch_taxon - FAO 3-alpha code

  • n - Number of measurements

  • a_6 - 60th percentile of parameter 'a'

  • b_6 - 60th percentile of parameter 'b'

• ml - A data frame with morphological data:

  • catch_taxon - FAO 3-alpha code

  • n - Number of measurements

  • max_length_75 - 75th percentile of maximum length

  • max_weightkg_75 - 75th percentile of maximum weight in kg

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Get coefficients and morphological data
results <- getLWCoeffs(taxa_list, asfis_list)

# Access length-weight coefficients
lw_coeffs <- results$lw

# Access morphological data
morph_data <- results$ml
} # }
