Exploring the assumptions of multi-stock assessment models for humpback whales ( Megaptera novaeangliae ) in the Southern Hemisphere: using Breeding Stocks D and E as an example
There is potential value in exploring multi-stock models to address situations where humpback stocks are mixing. However, sensitivity to theassumptions underlying these models has yet to be fully explored. Using a simple simulation approach, the assumptions of a population model thatallows for mixin...
