Get growth curves giving weight as a function of age
Arguments
- object
MizerSim or MizerParams object. If given a MizerSim object, uses the growth rates at the final time of a simulation to calculate the size at age. If given a MizerParams object, uses the initial growth rates instead.
- species
The species to be selected. Optional. By default all target species are selected. A vector of species names, or a numeric vector with the species indices, or a logical vector indicating for each species whether it is to be selected (TRUE) or not.
- max_age
The age up to which to run the growth curve. Default is 20.
- percentage
Boolean value. If TRUE, the size is given as a percentage of the maximal size.
