SPmod: Surplus production based catch-limit modifier

Description

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

Usage

SPmod(x, Data, reps = 100, alp = c(0.8, 1.2), bet = c(0.8, 1.2))

Arguments

x

A position in data-limited methods data object

Data

A data-limited methods data object

reps

The number of quota samples

alp

Condition for modifying the TAC (bounds on change in abundance)

bet

Limits for how much the TAC can change among years

Value

A numeric vector of TAC recommendations

Details

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