Developing Alternative Indices of Reproductive Potential for Use in Fisheries Management: Case Studies for Stocks Spanning an Information Gradient
Open accessAbstract
There is accumulating evidence to suggest that spawning stock biomass (SSB) may not be directly proportional to reproductive potential.The wide-ranging implications of this conclusion necessitate that it be tested for as many stocks as possible.Undertaking such tests is complicated by the fact that fish stocks vary in the amount and type of information that is available to estimate reproductive potential.In this review, nine stocks illustrate the range of

Total egg production is considered a more accurate representation of the reproductive potential of a species than spawning stock biomass because it accounts for the size (or age) composition of the spawning population and changes in annual fecundity with fish size/age.
“Total egg production is considered a more accurate representation of the reproductive potential of a species than spawning stock biomass as the size (or age) composition of the spawning population, and changes in annual fecundity with fish size/age, are taken into account in the former [1, 2].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
