spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/11610 The assessment of and management procedure development for the Namibian Monkfish resource Iiyambo, David Shituula Butterworth, Doug S Mathematics and Applied Mathematics Includes bibliographical references (leaves 89-97). Although two monkfish species (Lophius vomerinus and L. vaillanti) are caught off the Namibian coast, the less abundant of the two (L. vaillanti, contributing only 1 % to total landings) is not explicitly dealt with in this thesis, and the resource is treated as one species. The purpose of this thesis is to undertake a Bayesian assessment of the resource, and to use this as the basis to develop an Operational Management Procedure (OMP) for the resource. First, the biology, history of the fishery, and the history of monkfish stock assessment and management are reviewed briefly. Then the reasons for using an Age-Structured Production Model (ASPM) for assessment are discussed. 2015-01-06T18:51:05Z 2015-01-06T18:51:05Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11610 eng application/pdf Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
