shphase_memv

Shows phase diagram of reserve and structural mass

Contents

Syntax

shphase_memv (F,d)

Description

The routine plots the phase diagram of reserve mass M_E and structural mass M_V (in C-moles). The direction field is given with arrows, the null-isoclines in red curves. The green curves represent stage transitions: embryo to juvenile (where feeding is switched on), and where the mobilisation flux equals the somatic maintenance costs. If the organism could shrink, it would die at this border. The magenta box gives the border of possible values.

Input

Remarks

Shrinking should be faster than indicated here cf {231} run pars_animal before running this function See shphase_el for phase diagram of scaled reserve density e and scaled lenth l.

Example of use

pars_animal; shphase_memv(1,5)
