CourseDetails
โข Introduction to Fisheries Science & Modeling: This unit will cover the basics of fisheries science and the importance of modeling in this field. It will introduce various fisheries models and their applications.
โข Population Dynamics & Modeling: This unit will focus on the population dynamics of fish species and the various models used to predict their behavior. Topics may include the Beverton-Holt model, the Ricker model, and the surplus production model.
โข Stock Assessment Models: This unit will cover the different stock assessment models used in fisheries science. Topics may include the virtual population analysis (VPA) model, the catch-at-age (CAA) model, and the statistical catch-at-age (SCAA) model.
โข Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Modeling: This unit will discuss the role of ecosystem-based fisheries modeling in understanding the complex interactions between fish populations, their habitats, and the broader ecosystem.
โข Spatial & Habitat Modeling: This unit will cover the use of spatial and habitat modeling in fisheries science. Topics may include the development of spatial distribution models and the analysis of habitat suitability.
โข Risk Assessment & Management Strategy Evaluation: This unit will discuss the role of risk assessment and management strategy evaluation in fisheries management. Topics may include the development of decision support tools and the use of adaptive management strategies.
โข Data Analysis & Model Validation: This unit will cover the importance of data analysis and model validation in fisheries modeling. Topics may include the use of statistical methods for data analysis and the assessment of model fit.
โข Communication & Application of Fisheries Models: This unit will discuss the communication of fisheries models to stakeholders and their application in fisheries management. Topics may include the use of visualization tools and the development of management recommendations.
