| Summary: | No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.We here discuss the scope, nature and quality standards of simulation models that may be used in order to evaluate proposed or candidate management plans, including their parameters (reference points). A recently proposed management plan for North-East Arctic cod is used as a working example. We discuss some generic designs of management plans, in particular with respect to performance in relation to different kinds of objectives, including adherence to the precautionary approach. We further discuss simulation tools to evaluate the performance of management plans and to select appropriate values for their key parameters, and suggest some quality criteria for such tools. In particular, we stress the need to have unbiased stochastic parameters and to have realistic levels of errors in the basis for future decisions according to the plan. A new management plan for North-East Arctic cod (Gadus morhua) was agreed by the management agency (Joint ... |
