Convert biomass to Nf (and Ns)

Usage

biomass_to_Nf(biomass, Q_int = NULL, Q_rel = 0.5, spec_params, dry = T)

Arguments

biomass

wet (or dry) biomass, mg m-3

Q_int

Non-dimensionalised internal nutrient quotient

Q_rel

the non-dimensionalised relative internal nutrient quotient (\(Q_{rel}\))

spec_params

a vector of named numbers. Must include:

  • DWWW (if dry = F), the conversion from dry weight to wet weight

  • Q_min, the minimum internal nutrient quotient

  • Q_max, the maximum internal nutrient quotient

dry

logical, return dry or wet biomass. If dry = F, spec_params'DWWW' must be provided

Value

Nf, mg m-3
