21–23 January 2020
ICES Headquarters, Copenhagen, Denmark
WKRFSAM will focus on future directions of state-space assessment models for fish stocks, utilising recent advances in fisheries modelling research to help define best practices.
The workshop will develop advice on the advantages and disadvantages of methods/tools relating to
- model formulation and selection
- model estimation efficiency and robustness
- model validation
This work will improve our understanding of the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the underlying formulations of current state space models, and also extending models to include new dynamics and new data sets.
