A feasibility study for stock assessment of D. mawsoni in the Ross Sea (Subares 88.1 and 88.2) using a tag and recapture experiment
Abstract: This paper reports on a feasibility study into a tag and recapture experiment for the ... fishery during the last 3 seasons. A good number of tag recoveries have been reported, mainly within the ... Jolly-Seber or variant estimators. The utility of this approach is investigated here by applying a Jolly ... -Seber estimator to simulated tagging data generated by an operating model over a range of assumed ...
