Creates a matrix for forcing functions related to fishing: (ForcedEffort, ForcedFRate, and ForcedCatch). Default values are set to 1 for ForcedEffort, and to 0 ForcedFRate, and ForcedCatch for all timesteps and groups.
Value
S3 object class Rsim.fishing
, a list of 3 objects:
ForcedEffort
, numeric matrix of monthly (rows) effort multiplier by fleet (columns)ForcedFRate
, numeric matrix of annual (rows) fishing mortality rate by biomass group (columns)ForcedEffort
, numeric matrix of annual (rows) total catch removal by biomass group (columns)
Examples
# Read in Rpath parameter file and generate model object
Rpath <- rpath(AB.params)
# Create dynamic parameters from Rpath model
Rsim.params <- rsim.params(Rpath)
# Create fishing matrix with default values
Rsim.fishing <- rsim.fishing(Rsim.params, years = 1:50)
