SPslope: Slope in surplus production MP

Description

A management procedure that makes incremental adjustments to TAC recommendations based on the apparent trend in recent surplus production. Based on the theory of Mark Maunder (IATTC)

Usage

SPslope(x, DLM_data, reps = 100, yrsmth = 4, alp = c(0.9, 1.1), bet = c(1.5, 0.9))

Arguments

x
A position in data-limited methods data object
DLM_data
A data-limited methods data object
reps
The number of quota samples
yrsmth
Years over which to smooth recent estimates of surplus production
alp
Condition for modifying the DLM_data (bounds on change in abundance)
bet
Limits for how much the DLM_data can change among years

Value

A numeric vector of DLM_data recommendations

Details

Note that this isn't exactly what Mark has previously suggested and is stochastic in this implementation.
