Incremental Index Target MP

Description

A management procedure that incrementally adjusts the TAC (starting from reference level that is a fraction of mean recent catches) to reach a target CPUE / relative abundance index

Usage

Itarget1(x, Data, reps = 100, plot = FALSE, yrsmth = 5, xx = 0, Imulti = 1.5)

Itarget2(x, Data, reps = 100, plot = FALSE, yrsmth = 5, xx = 0, Imulti = 2)

Itarget3(x, Data, reps = 100, plot = FALSE, yrsmth = 5, xx = 0, Imulti = 2.5)

Itarget4(x, Data, reps = 100, plot = FALSE, yrsmth = 5, xx = 0.3, Imulti = 2.5)

Arguments

x

A position in the data object

Data

A data object

reps

The number of stochastic samples of the MP recommendation(s)

plot

Logical. Show the plot?

yrsmth

Years over which the average index is calculated.

xx

Parameter controlling the fraction of mean catch to start using in first year

Imulti

Parameter controlling how much larger target CPUE / index is compared with recent levels.

Details

Four index/CPUE target MPs proposed by Geromont and Butterworth 2014. Tested by Carruthers et al. 2015.

The TAC is calculated as: If I_\textrm{recent} \geq I_0:

\textrm{TAC}= 0.5 \textrm{TAC}^* \left[1+\left(\frac{I_\textrm{recent} - I_0}{I_\textrm{target} - I_0}\right)\right]

else:

\textrm{TAC}= 0.5 \textrm{TAC}^* \left[\frac{I_\textrm{recent}}{I_0}^2\right]

where I_0 is 0.8 I_{\textrm{ave}} (the average index over the 2 x yrsmth years prior to the projection period), I_\textrm{recent} is the average index over the past yrsmth years, and I_\textrm{target} is Imulti times I_{\textrm{ave}}, and \textrm{TAC}^* is:

(1-x)C

where x is argument xx and C is the average catch over the last 5 years of the historical period.

Value

An object of class Rec-class with the TAC slot populated with a numeric vector of length reps
