Author:Brandão, Anabela; Butterworth, Doug SDate:Mar 2018Some simple analyses of the tag-recapture data available for the PEI toothfish
resource are undertaken. Somatic growth rate seems to be less than that in
Subarea 48.3 which has previously been assumed for assessments of the PEI
resource. ...Read more

Author:Brandão, Anabela; Butterworth, Doug SDate:2003GLM analyses are used to standardise the CPUE data for Namibian orange roughy. The possibility of there being a “learning” period of lower CPUE for a new vessel when it enters the fishery is taken into account. Alternative statistical approaches ...Read more
