For many situations, catch and data are only
available for assessment especially for nontarget species, small scale fisheries...
The Schaefer surplus production model is
commonly used in fisheries stock
assessment.
It has a symmetrical relationship between
equilibrium yield and biomass where maximum
sustainable yield occurs when the population is at
50% of the unexploited level
2

The Schaefer model has been criticized
because contemporary stock assessment
models, which explicitly model the individual
population processes, suggest that MSY is
obtained at biomass levels substantially less
than 50% of the unexploited level for many
species.
3

Pella and Tomlinson (1969) developed a more
general surplus production model with an
additional (shape) parameter that allows MSY
to occur at any biomass level.
MSY
m  f ( B M SY / B 0 )


Surplus production models represent
population dynamics as a function of a single
aggregated measure of biomass.

 ~  B0 , r , m
e.g. carrying capacity (K or B0), productivity rate (r),
and shape parameter (m)


It is well known that the production function
of a stock is highly dependent on biological
processes
◦ e.g. growth, natural mortality, and recruitment and
density dependence (e.g. the stock-recruitment
relationship).

This has led to questioning of the use of
traditional surplus production models for the
assessment of fish stocks.
◦ Estimation of the production function from catch
and an index of relative abundance (or catch and
effort data is problematic
6

The production function is also dependent on
the size (or age) of fish caught by the fishery.
◦ In general, fisheries that catch small fish produce a
lower MSY compared to fisheries that catch large
fish.


Fisheries that catch small fish also generally
produce a lower BMSY/B0.
Therefore, the age/size of the fish caught in a
fishery needs to be taken into consideration
when estimating the impact of a fishery on
the stock


Typically, the selectivity increases smoothly
with the size or age of the individual and
either asymptotes or perhaps reducing at
larger sizes.
The shape of the selectivity at size/age
should be explicitly taken into consideration
when evaluating equilibrium yield or the
shape of the production function.
9

First we use simulation analysis to illustrate
the impact of selectivity and biological
parameters on the production function based
on equilibrium age-structured model.
10

Then we evaluate how changes in selectivity
over time influence parameter estimates and
management advice from production models.
◦ The simulation analysis is roughly based on the
bigeye tuna stock in the eastern Pacific Ocean.
◦ The fishery has changed from mainly a longline
fishery, which captures large bigeye, to a mix of
longline and purse seine, which captures small
bigeye.
11

Sensitivity of MSY and related management
quantities to biological parameters and
selectivity is analyzed based on an agestructured model developed to model the
population dynamics under equilibrium
conditions.

The dynamic age-structured model is used to
simulate a age-specific biomass, fishing
mortality, catch series and index of relative
abundance for BET in the EPO.
◦ Beverton and Holt stock-recruitment relationship
 recruitment is modeled using multiplicative lognormal
process variation
◦
◦
◦
◦
Gear-specific separate fishing mortality
von Bertalanffy growth function
Knife-edged maturity
Constant natural mortality


The BET stock in the EPO has two main
fisheries, purse seine setting on floating
objects and longline.
Thus the dynamic age-structured model is
developed for incorporating gear-specific
selectivities.
◦ Gear-specific fishing mortality is the product of
gear-specific effort, catchability and selectivity.
Selectivity
◦ Selectivity of longline (SLL) is assumed to be logistic
curve
◦ Selectivity of purse-seine (SPS) is assumed to be
descending right hand limb.

The results of this study indicate that the
selectivity and biological processes can
substantially impact the production function.
Vulnerable biomass and spawning biomass
are calculated based on different equations
basis. However, production model only
estimates biomass based on vulnerable
pattern and thus we cannot know which
measurement is appropriate to be used for
comparison.
38
Estimating shape parameter of PellaTomlinson production model would be
problematic.
◦ The estimations are biased and imprecise.
◦ Lead to the problematic estimates.

Since historical catch and catch rate were
mainly contributed by LL, time-varied
parameters of production calculated based on
gear-combined selectivity cannot significantly
improve fits of production model.
◦ Assuming the parameters of production based on
LL selectivity would improve the fits of model.
40


Production function is substantially
influenced by biological process and
selectivity assumptions.
Schaefer model might not be appropriate for
most scenarios.
41


Although Pella-Tomlinson model is much
flexible, estimating shape parameters leads
to problematic estimations for all selectivity
assumptions.
The estimations of production model are
distinct from the those of age-structured
model (“true values”) since population
dynamics is actually related to age-specific
selectivity.
