xrec: MCMC Results for Recruitment

Description

Markov chain Monte Carlo results from stock assessment of cod (Gadus morhua) in Icelandic waters, showing estimated recruitment by year.

Usage

xrec

Format

Data frame containing 1000 rows and 33 columns (years 1970 to 2002).

Details

Each column contains the results of 1 million MCMC iterations, after thinning to every 1000th iteration.

The MCMC analysis started at the best fit, so no burn-in period was discarded.
