Pre-check all parameters for grow_macroalgae()
check_grow.RdCheck that all parameters, inputs and settings are correct for the grow_macroalgae() function. Gives a report on what needs to be modified for the main function to run smoothly. This is to avoid the main function slowing down to give endless warnings and messages.

)Arguments
- temperature
a vector of daily temperatures (\(^{\circ}\)C)
- salinity
a vector of daily salt concentrations (g L\(^{-1}\))
- light
a vector of surface light (umol m\(^{-2}\) s\(^{-1}\))
- kW
a vector of light attenuation coefficients for open water (m\(^{-1}\))
- velocity
a vector of water velocities (m s\(^{-1}\))
- nitrate
a vector of nitrate concentrations (mg m\(^{-3}\))
- ammonium
a vector of ammonium concentrations (mg m\(^{-3}\))
- ni_uptake
shape for nitrate uptake, either "MM" for Michaelis-Menton saturation kinetics or "linear" for linear uptake
- am_uptake
shape for ammonium uptake, either "MM" for Michaelis-Menton saturation kinetics or "linear" for linear uptake
- site_params
a named vector of species-specific parameters - see details
- spec_params
a named vector of site-specific parameters - see details
- initials
a named vector of the macroalgae starting conditions
- sparse_output
logical, whether to include input vectors and other non-essential information in final dataframe (default = TRUE)
- other_constants
a named vector of other constants for intermediate equations (see
u_c())
