Information on available surveys in DATRAS:
getSurveyList()
Extracting survey haul (HH), lenght (HL) and agebased (CA) data from a given survey, quarter and year, i.e. North Sea IBTS, Quarter 1, 2019:
survey <- "NS-IBTS"
year <- 2019
quarter <- 1
HH <- getHHdata(survey, year, quarter)
HL <- getHLdata(survey, year, quarter)
CA <- getCAdata(survey, year, quarter)
Extracting catch weight of cod from the Baltic Sea survey, year 2019, quarter 1.
Note: The icesVocab package provides findAphia
, a function to look up Aphia species codes.
library(icesVocab)
aphia <- icesVocab::findAphia("cod")
survey <- "BITS"
years <- 2019
quarters <- 1
codwgt <- getCatchWgt(survey, years, quarters, aphia)
Get catch weight for Baltic cod from all quarters in a small timeseries (e.g. 1991 to 2011) and plot the weight in a sipmle graph per quarter.
library(icesVocab)
library(ggplot2)
aphia <- icesVocab::findAphia("cod")
survey <- "BITS"
years <- 1991:2011
quarters <- 1:4
codwgt <- getCatchWgt(survey, years, quarters, aphia)
codwgt %>% ggplot(aes(x = Year, y = CatchWgt, colour= Quarter)) + geom_point()
