Direct estimates of gear selectivity from multiple tagging experiments

چکیده
A new method is introduced for estimating selectivity of fishing gear from tagging data in which data from many experiments are combined. Selectivity is modeled as a multiplicative function of length and experiment effects using a generalized linear model with a log link function and a binomial error structure. We apply this method to 137 tagging experiments on Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) conducted from 1954 to 1991. We show that the selectivity of otter trawls changed from the 1960s to the 1980s; during the earlier period the maximum probability of capture occurred at 55 cm and declined for longer fish, whereas in recent years the maximum probability is at approximately 60 cm and remains constant for longer fish. We discuss how selectivity estimates can be used to improve stock assessments. Résumé : Une nouvelle mØthode est prØsentØe pour estimer la sØlectivitØ des engins de pŒche à partir des donnØes de marquage dans laquelle sont combinØes les donnØes de nombreuses expØriences. La sØlectivitØ est modØlisØe comme une fonction multiplicative de la longueur et des effets de lexpØrience à laide dun modŁle linØaire gØnØralisØ comportant une fonction de liaison avec les journaux de pŒche et une structure derreur binomiale. Nous appliquons cette mØthode à 137 expØriences de marquage de la morue franche (Gadus morhua) rØalisØes de 1954 à 1991. Nous montrons que la sØlectivitØ des chaluts à panneaux a changØ entre les annØes 1960 et les annØes 1980; durant la premiŁre de ces deux pØriodes, la probabilitØ maximale de capture survenait à 55 cm et diminuait pour les poissons plus longs, tandis quau cours de la pØriode plus rØcente, la probabilitØ maximale de capture survenait à 60 cm et demeurait constante pour les poissons plus longs. Nous discutons de la façon dont les estimations de la sØlectivitØ peuvent Œtre utilisØes pour amØliorer les Øvaluations des stocks. [Traduit par la RØdaction]

Part of speech tagging (POS tagging) is an ongoing research in natural language processing (NLP) applications. The process of classifying words into their parts of speech and labeling them accordingly is known as part-of-speech tagging, POS-tagging, or simply tagging. Parts of speech are also known as word classes or lexical categories. The purpose of POS tagging is determining the grammatical ...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Tooth Wear, Mechanical Power Losses and Efficiency in Normal and High Contact Ratio Asymmetric Spur Gears
The surface tooth wear which occurs at the gear contact region due to inadequate contact strength of the tooth is one of the predominant modes of gear failures. Currently, higher contact ratio spur gears are increasingly used in power transmission applications such as aircraft, wind turbine, automobiles and compact tracked vehicles due to their high load carrying capacity. In this work, the di...
متن کاملTesting Modified Deep-Set Buoy Gear to Minimize Bycatch and Increase Swordfish Selectivity
This project investigates the use of alternative deep-set buoy gear (DSBG) configurations for the targeting of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) at depth during the day off the coast of southern California. Gear configurations presented in this work build upon previous DSBG studies that incorporate regional depth distribution data from both swordfish and non-target species into the gear design. Multi...
