Fleet Structures Model - Biological Feedback
- Summary
- The Fleet Structures Model* (FSM) is a predictive model under development by the Sea Fish Industry Authority. Its purpose is to simulate aspects of the structure and performance of the United Kingdom sea fishing fleet in order to make comparative assessments of fleet management policy scenarios. Because of the inherent complexity of the model it has been developed in separate sections. The first of these to reach completion as a stand-alone computer model is the Biological Feedback phase. This predicts the effects of catch levels on fish stocks, and the consequent effect on catch rates as stocks rise and fall. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
