Course Details
• Advanced Fisheries Data Analysis: an in-depth exploration of statistical methods and software tools used to analyze fisheries data, including time series analysis, generalized linear models, and mixed-effects models.
• Fish Population Dynamics: a study of the processes that govern the growth, recruitment, and mortality of fish populations, including the development of population models to predict the effects of management actions.
• Spatial Fisheries Modeling: an introduction to the use of geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial statistics in fisheries management, including the development of spatial models to predict the distribution and abundance of fish.
• Fisheries Stock Assessment: an examination of the methods used to estimate the abundance and exploitation status of fish stocks, including the development of stock assessment models and the interpretation of assessment results.
• Fisheries Management Strategy Evaluation: an exploration of the use of simulation models to evaluate the performance of alternative fisheries management strategies, including the development of optimization models to identify the best management options.
• Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Management: an overview of the concepts and approaches used in ecosystem-based fisheries management, including the development of models to assess the impacts of fishing on marine ecosystems.
• Climate Change and Fisheries: an examination of the impacts of climate change on fisheries, including the development of models to predict the effects of climate change on fish populations and the development of adaptation strategies.
• Advanced Topics in Fisheries Modeling: a survey of the latest developments and advances in fisheries modeling, including the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques in fisheries management.
• Fisheries Modeling Software: a hands-on exploration of the most commonly used software tools for fisheries modeling, including R, MATLAB, and Simile.
• Case Studies in Fisheries Modeling: an examination of real-world examples of fisheries modeling, including the use of modeling to inform management decisions in a variety of fisheries around the world.
• Stakeholder Engagement in Fisheries Modeling: a discussion of the importance of involving stakeholders in the fisheries modeling
