Plots the length-at-age data and estimates
Usage
plot_length_age(
data,
dir = NULL,
col_length = "length_cm",
col_age = "age",
estimates = NULL,
two_sex = TRUE,
add_save_name = NULL,
height = 7,
width = 7,
dpi = 300
)
Arguments
- data
Data frame created by
pull_bio()
- dir
Directory where output will be saved. The directory where the file should be saved. If dir = NULL no output will be saved.
- col_length
A numeric or character value specifying the column to use in
data
for length information. These lengths are assumed to be in centimeters. The default value islength_cm
.- col_age
A numeric or character value specifying the column to use in
data
for age information. These ages are assumed to be in years. The default value isage
.- estimates
Data frame of age-at-length estimates from
est_vbgrowth()
. If passed to the function the estimated parameter values will be added to the plot. The default isNULL
and will not add parameters to the plot.- two_sex
Default TRUE. If TRUE the sexed data will be plotted and if FALSE all data will be plotted as unsexed. If
estimates
are passed to the function then the corresponding parameter estimates will be plotted.- add_save_name
Option to add text to a saved figure name. This option can be useful if creating plots across multiple species and saving them into a single folder. The default is
NULL
. Note that the biomass estimate, i.e., annual or strata, are already included in the saved name so no need to add those here.- width, height
Numeric values for the figure width and height in inches. The defaults are 7 by 7 inches.
- dpi
The resolution to apply when saving figures. Lower resolution values can reduce file size which can be helpful when creating large documents with many figures. The default is 300.
