Calculate region-level age composition and mean/std.dev length at age
calc_agecomp_region.Rd
Calculate region-level age composition and mean/std.dev length at age
Arguments
- racebase_tables
data object created from `gapindex::get_data()``
- age_comps_stratum
a named list of stratum age comps and numbers by survey/year/stratum/sex/length, a result object from
gapindex::calc_agecomp_stratum()
.
Value
dataframe of age composition and mean/standard deviation of length at age aggregated across regions.
Field | Description |
YEAR | Year the survey was conducted in. |
AGE | Age bin of a taxon in years estimated by the age comp estimate. |
AREA_ID | Area ID code for each statistical area used to produce production estimates (e.g., biomass, population, age comps, length comps). Each area ID is unique within each survey. |
LENGTH_MM_MEAN | Mean length estimated in age comp estimate. |
LENGTH_MM_SD | Variance of mean length estimated in age comp estimate. |
POPULATION_COUNT | The estimated population caught in the survey for a species, group, or total for a given survey. |
SEX | Sex of a specimen where "1" = "Male", "2" = "Female", "3" = Unsexed. |
SPECIES_CODE | The species code of the organism associated with the 'common_name' and 'scientific_name' columns. For a complete species list, review the code books. |
SURVEY | Name and description of survey. The column 'survey' is associated with the 'srvy' and 'survey_id' columns. |
SURVEY_DEFINITION_ID | This number uniquely identifies a survey. Name and description of survey. The column 'survey_id' is associated with the 'srvy' and 'survey' columns. For a complete list of surveys, review the code books. |
