datalimited2: More stock assessment methods for data-limited fisheries

Installation

Before installing datalimited2, you will need to install JAGS (for BSM) and a C++ compiler (i.e., Xcode for Macs, RTools for Windows; for installing packages using the "devtools" package).

The "datalimited2" R package can then be installed from GitHub with:

# Run if you don't already have devtools installed
install.packages("devtools")

# Run once devtools is successfully installed
devtools::install_github("cfree14/datalimited2")
library(datalimited2)

The package implements the following catch-only stock assessment models:

  • cMSY from Froese et al. 2017; see ?cmsy2
  • Bayesian surplus production model (BSM) from Froese et al. 2017; see ?bsm
  • Boosted regression tree approach (zBRT) from Zhou et al. 2017a; see ?zbrt
  • Optimized catch-only model (OCOM) from Zhou et al. 2017b; see ?ocom
  • Refined ORCS approach (rORCS) from Free et al. 2017; see ?rorcs
  • Multispecies cMSY (MS-cMSY) from Free et al. in prep; see ?ms_cmsy

The results of all but the rORCS model can be visualized using the ?plot_dlm function.

The performance of catch-only methods (i.e., their ability to accurately estimate B/BMSY or accurately classify categorical status) can be compared using the ?performance function.

Many of these catch-only methods require estimates of resilience to set priors and resilience estimates can be retrieved from FishBase/SeaLifeBase busing the ?resilience function.
