| dc.description.abstract | Bayesian stock assessment results for a mixed model breeding sub-stocks C1 and C2+3 are presented. The modelling approach allows mixing on the feeding grounds and fits to various data sources, including capturerecapture data from both sub-stocks. A baseline case which inputs all capture-recapture data directly suggests posterior median 2006 abundances for each sub-stock of a little more than 7000, with C1 at about 85% and C2+3 at about 55% of their pristine levels. These results are intended to be illustrative only, and the variety of choices available for the various model inputs require further discussion by the IWC Scientific Committee. | en_ZA |
