2003 updated assessment for the Merluccius paradoxus hake resource off the south and west coasts

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2003 This document presents an updated assessment of the M. paradoxus hake resource off the south and west coasts of South Africa. The previous assessment of this resource is described in Rademeyer and Butterworth (2002). Read more
The 2004 age-structured production model assessments and projections for the South Coast rock lobster resource

Author: Johnston, Susan J ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2004 The assessment conducted in 2003 has been routinely extended, taking account of a further year’s catch, CPUE and catch-at-age data. CPUE shows a continuation of the increase that commenced in 1998. Results are generally more optimistic than ... Read more

The 2007 Age-Structured Production Model assessments and projections for the South Coast rock lobster resource-routine update using model fitting to catch-at-age data

Author: Johnston, Susan J ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2007 The assessment conducted in 2006 (WG/06/06/WCRL3) has been routinely extended, taking account of a further year’s catch, CPUE and catch-at-age data. The observed CPUE shows a slight decrease for 2005 (2005/06 season). The sustainable yield ... Read more
The 2007 age-structured production model assessments and projections for the South Coast rock lobster resource-routine update using Pope's approximation model fitting to catch-at-age data including scenarios for time-varying selectivity

Author: Johnston, Susan J ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2007 The assessment conducted in 2006 (WG/06/06/WCRL3) has been routinely extended (except that the Baranov equation has been replaced by Pope’s approximation), taking account of a further year’s catch, CPUE and catch-at-age data. The observed ... Read more
2007 assessment of the toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) resource in the Prince Edward Islands vicinity

Author: Brandão, Anabela ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2006 The ASPM assessment of the Prince Edward Islands toothfish resource by Brandão and Butterworth (2006) that permitted annual fluctuations about a deterministic stock-recruitment relationship is updated to take account of further catch, GLM ...

2007 Routine update of the South African hake baseline assessment

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2007 This paper presents a routine update of the South African hake assessment, including new commercial (catches and CPUE) and survey (abundance estimates and catch-at-age) data. Only one scenario (M1-H1-C1-SR2) of the Reference Set, which is ... Read more
2008 routine update of the South African hake resource baseline assessment

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2008 This paper presents a routine update of the South African hake assessment, including new commercial (catches and CPUE) and survey (abundance estimates) data. This update is for a “baseline” assessment, chosen to correspond to the scenario ... Read more
2009 updated stock assessments for West Coast rock lobster

Author: Johnston, Susan J ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2009 The west coast rock lobster assessment of 20061 based on data to 2004 is updated to include data up to 2008. Over the last four years the exploitable biomass trend is upwards for Areas 7 and 8 and the resource as a whole, but downwards for ... Read more
2010 Estimates of sustainable rock lobster yield for the four islands of the Tristan da Cunha group

Author: Johnston, Susan J ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2010 A simple replacement yield model is fitted to CPUE and annual catch data from 1997 for the four islands of the Tristan da Cunha group. The results suggest that the current TAC be maintained, with a slight increase (perhaps 5 tons) to the ... Read more c b
The 2010 operational management procedure for the South African Merluccius paradoxus and M.?capensis resources

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A ; Fairweather, T ; Glazer, Jean Patricia ; Leslie, R L ; Butterworth, Doug S Date: 2010 The algorithm for the 2010 Operational Management Procedure (OMP) to provide TAC recommendations for the South African Merluccius paradoxus and M. capensis resources is empirical. It combines an increase or decrease of the TAC in relation to ... Read more
2011 Routine update of the South African hake base reference case assessment

Author: Rademeyer, Rebecca A Date: 2011 As required under the annual OMP review process, this paper presents a routine update of the South African hake Reference Case assessment (RS1) (Rademeyer and Butterworth, 2010), including new commercial (catches and CPUE) and survey ... Read more
