SPSRA_ML: Surplus Production Stock Reduction Analysis using a mean-length estimate of current stock depletion

Description

A surplus production equivalent of DB-SRA that uses a demographically derived prior for intrinsic rate of increase. A prior for depletion is calculated from a mean-length estimator

Usage

SPSRA_ML(x, Data, reps = 100)

Arguments

x

A position in a data-limited methods data object

Data

A data-limited methods data object (class DLM)

reps

The number of samples of the TAC taken
