The expected carrion lifetime is defined as the inverse of the mass-specific carrion consumption rate.

Usage

carrion_lifetime(params)

carrion_lifetime(params) <- value

Arguments

params

A MizerParams object

value

A number with the new value for the expected lifetime in years.

Assigning a new value to the carrion lifetime rescales the carrion abundance while keeping the total consumption and decomposition of carrion the same (by adjusting the interaction strength of species with carrion and the mass-specific decomposition rate).

Value

The number giving the expected lifetime in years.
