Bayesian hierarchical space-time models to improve multispecies assessment by combining observations from disparate fish surveys

Chibuzor C. Nnanatu, Murray S. A. Thompson, Michael A. Spence +3

Many wild species affected by human activities require multiple surveys with differing designs to capture behavioural response to wide ranging habitat conditions and map and quanti…

Quantifying uncertainty and dynamical changes in multi-species fishing mortality rates, catches and biomass by combining state-space and mechanistic multi-species models

Michael A. Spence, Robert B. Thorpe, Paul G. Blackwell +3

In marine management, fish stocks are often managed on a stock-by-stock basis using single-species models. Many of these models are based upon statistical techniques and are good a…

Fish should not be in isolation: Calculating maximum sustainable yield using an ensemble model

Michael A. Spence, Khatija Alliji, Hayley J. Bannister +2

Many jurisdictions have a legal requirement to manage fish stocks to maximum sustainable yield (MSY). Generally, MSY is calculated on a single-species basis, however in reality, th…

Multi-model ensembles for ecosystem prediction

Michael A Spence, Julia L. Blanchard, Axel G. Rossberg +7

When making predictions about ecosystems, we often have available a number of different ecosystem models that attempt to represent their dynamics in a detailed mechanistic way. Eac…
