Dataset of 302 measurements of 11 fish species to accompany the
    manuscript "Length-weight relationships of six freshwater fish species
    from lake Kirkkojarvi, Finland".

Functions for applying a wide range of fisheries stock assessment methods.

Fits models to catch and effort data. Single-species models are 1) delta log-normal, 2) Tweedie, or 3) Poisson-gamma (G)LMs.

Provides an alternative to facilitate the construction of a phylogeny for fish species from a list of species
   or a community matrix using as a backbone the phylogenetic tree proposed by Rabosky et al. (2018) <doi:10.1038/s41586-018-0273-1>.

The proximate composition analysis is the quantification of main components that constitutes nutritional profile of any food and food products including fish, shellfish, fish feed and their ingredients. Understanding this composition is essential for evaluating their nutritional value and for making informed dietary choices. The primary components typically analyzed include; moisture/ water in foods, crude protein, crude fat/ lipid, total ash, fiber and carbohydrates AOAC(2005,ISBN:0-935584-77-3). In case of fish, shellfish and its products, the proximate composition consists of four primary constituents - water, protein, fat, and ash (mostly minerals). Fish exhibit significant variation in their chemical makeup based on age, sex, environment, and season, both within the same species and between individual fish. There is minimal fluctuation in the content of ash and protein. The lipid concentration varies remarkably and is inversely correlated with the water content. In case of fish, carbohydrates are present in minor quantity so that are quantified by subtracting total of other components from 100 to get percentage of carbohydrates.

A bundle of analytics tools for fisheries scientists. A 'shiny' R App is included for a 'no-code' solution for retrieval, analysis, and visualization.
