HCR_MSYR Documentation

Harvest control rule to fish at some fraction of maximum sustainable yield

Description

A simple control rule that specifies the total allowable catch (TAC) as a function of the abundance of the first projection year and some fraction of FMSY/UMSY.

Usage

HCR_MSY(Assessment, reps = 1, MSY_frac = 1, ...)

Arguments

Assessment

An object of class Assessment with estimates of FMSY or UMSY and vulnerable biomass in terminal year.

reps

The number of stochastic samples of the TAC recommendation.

MSY_frac

The fraction of FMSY or UMSY for calculating the TAC (e.g. MSY_frac = 0.75 fishes at 75% of FMSY).

...

Miscellaneous arguments.

Details

The catch advice is calculated using the catch equation of the corresponding assessment. See Assessment@forecast$catch_eq, a function that returns the catch advice for a specified Ftarget.

Value

An object of class MSEtool::Rec with the TAC recommendation.

Examples

# create an MP to run in closed-loop MSE (fishes at UMSY)
SPMSY <- make_MP(SP, HCR_MSY)

# The MP which fishes at 75% of FMSY
SP75MSY <- make_MP(SP, HCR_MSY, MSY_frac = 0.75)


myOM <- MSEtool::runMSE(MSEtool::testOM, MPs = c("FMSYref", "SPMSY", "SP75MSY"))
