A function to convert species-specific lengths to mass based on a user-provided length-mass equation form and variable values
Usage
create_sample_summary(
df = NULL,
wrap = FALSE,
abunValue = NULL,
massValue = NULL,
dateCol = NULL,
repCol = NULL,
...
)Arguments
- df
data.frame in long format for a single taxa. The data.frame should contain a species identifier column `taxonID` and a column of length bin categories `lengthClass`. `lengthClass` values must be numeric or coercible.
- wrap
logical (or coercible) indicating whether the production estimate should wrap the first and last dates to create a full annual cycle. If TRUE, this will create an additional sampling interval using the mean densities and masses to create a full annual data set.
- abunValue
string of the column name containing the abundance or density measurement
- massValue
string of the column name containing the mass measurement
- dateCol
string of the column name containing the date information. This can be either a recognized date object (e.g., Date, POSIX)
- repCol
string of the column name containing the replicate information
