Fish recruitment

06/20/2012 by jgluvna

For fisheries it is imperative for managers to understand the population dynamics of the fishery they are trying to manage. Create a model to describe the recruitment of fish into a population as a function of the size of the parent stock. What happens to recruitment as you increase or decrease the parent stock? What are the management implications of changes in the parent stock?

Theory

  • Derivatives of exponential function (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 131)
