estimatequota: Estimating the quota

In remi-daigle/BESTMPA:

Description

Returns the fishing quota given the biomass in fish using Fisheries mortality at Maximum Sustainable Yield with a precautionary buffer. Uses a linear projection of the last 5 years (if available; stored in the cache)

Usage

estimatequota(fish, maxage, y, tot_time, FMSY, FMSY_buffer)

Arguments

maxage	Maximum age considered in fish matrix
y	current year
tot_time	The time over which the model is run including spin-up time
FMSY	Fisheries mortality at Maximum Sustainable Yield
FMSY_buffer	quota set to fraction of FMSY as per precautionary principle

Examples

# create a fish matrix
fish <- initpop(initial_abun=250*10^6,cells=length(BESTMPA_domain),maxage=50,rate=0.7)
# quota
quota <- estimatequota(fish,maxage=20,y=2001,tot_time=2001:2071,FMSY=0.28,FMSY_buffer=0.667)
