  • Evaluating the data-poor fishery stock assessment method, DB-SRA

    Creator:
    Owashi, Brandon R.
    Abstract:
    Depletion-Based Stock Reduction Analysis (DB-SRA; Dick and MacCall, 2011) is a catch-only fisheries stock assessment model that has been developed to estimate an overfishing limit (OFL) in data-poor situations. DB-SRA projects the biomass trajectories of a stock by means of a catch time series and five parameters: the instantaneous, per...
