The following functions have been added to the package:
get_expanded_comps()
: This function estimates expanded composition data for length or age data. This function expands the composition data in the same manner as theSurveyLFs.fn()
and theSurveyAFs.fn()
functions. TheSurveyLFs.fn()
and theSurveyAFs.fn()
functions remain in the package but will deprecated at some point in the future once users are comfortable with the newget_expanded_comps()
function.get_input_n()
: This function calculates input sample size via three alternative methods: total samples, number of positive tows, or based on Stewart and Hamel, 2014. This function is similar to the existingGetN.fn()
function but has expanded functionality. Additionally, the newget_input_n()
function is called within theget_expanded_comps()
functions for SS3 formatted composition data.
The following functions have been modified:- All of the
pull_*
functions have been modified to allow users to either apply standard data filtering or to retain all data viastandard_filtering
argument. Additionally, the data pulling functions now report information on the number of samples that are removed withstandard_filtering = TRUE
ifverbose = TRUE
.
