Okay so the spinydogfish model echoinput file is stopping after:
GP Seas Area Use? female_recr_dist
1 1 1 1 0.5
made the age_age' key
Finished evaluating biology calculations once
Begin estimating
Warning file looks like the following:
Note 1 Information: Max data length bin: 132 < max pop len bins: 136; so will accumulate larger pop len bins
3 iter 1
hrate for 1970:
that stop in dogfish might only be because I had not yet removed a specific output statement while debugging. It is gone now.
Yes, all seems to be working!
Thanks Ian. Nothing magic about the 2.9 value. The role of max F is mostly to keep model from exploring F levels that nearly extirpate older fish. In the attached example, it is constraining during early hybrid phases to keep F below 2.9, which creates a catch penalty, which moves model back to higher biomass and lower F values. For long-lived stocks a maxF of 0.4 might seem reasonable, but even 0.40 will not extirpate.
continues development for issue #570 and especially #581 See description and example in #581 Substantial refactoring of the internal machinery for managing F as parameter vs F as hybrid extends the F-detail approach previously available only for F_method 2 to F_method 4
only new input is for F_method 4 if using the F_detail feature.
