Antarctic krill commercial fishing vessels, we estimated the relationship between statistical precision and ... –2008 were analysed by using a hierarchical Bayesian model. The models were composed of multistage ... biological process error in the population dynamics from fishery process as observation error. In both krill ... length and bycatch fish number, the parameters estimated by MCMC hardly show difference among years, sub ...

Evaluation of some processing techniques applied to acoustic recordings from two krill fishing vessels
Abstract: Acoustic data from krill fishing vessels have the potential to provide useful ... contributions to assess local krill abundance and distribution, and even as input to the CCAMLR feedback ... management system under development. The possibility to collect such data from the fleet has been ... demonstrated through a CCAMLR proof of concept, but processing is in most cases essential before any use of the ...

Assessing data requirements for tag-based estimates of local biomass in data-poor and exploratory fisheries
Research Block 5843a_1 with a fixed exploitation rate and various tagging rate scenarios to assess the ... impact on the numbers of tagged fish recaptures and accuracy of tag-based estimates using the Chapman ... estimator. The results showed that tag-based biomass estimates obtained from a low numbers of recaptures ...
