DLMtool (version 3.2.2)

GB_target: Geromont and Butterworth target CPUE and catch MP

Description

An MP similar to SBT2 that modifies a time-series of catch recommendations and aims for target catch rate and catch level based on BMSY/B0 and MSY, respectively.

Usage

GB_target(x, DLM_data, reps = 100, w = 0.5)

Arguments

x
A position in data-limited methods data object
DLM_data
A data-limited methods data object
reps
The number of quota samples
w
A gain parameter

Details

Note that this is my interpretation of their MP and is now stochastic. Currently it is generalized and is not 'tuned' to more detailed assessment data which might explain why in some cases it leads to stock declines.
