Rcontrol2: MP using prior for intrinsic rate of increase with a quadratic approximation to surplus production

Description

An MP proposed by Carl Walters that modifies quotas according to trends in apparent surplus production that includes information from a demographically derived prior for intrinsic rate of increase. This is different from Rcontrol because it includes a quadratic approximation of recent trend in surplus production given biomass

Usage

Rcontrol2(x, Data, reps = 100, yrsmth = 10, gg = 2, glim = c(0.5,
2))

Arguments

x

A position in data-limited methods data object

Data

A data-limited methods data object

reps

The number of TAC samples

yrsmth

The number of years for smoothing catch and biomass data

gg

A gain parameters

glim

Limits for the change in TAC among years
