Input values to SPR modelsEstimated from Stock assessment modelsFixed parametersAssumptions
Estimated in stock assessment models • Fishery selectivity curves for retained and discarded crab by sex and shell condition • Trawl bycatch selectivity and F • Growth transition matrix by sex • Molting probability by size – male king crabs
Fixed and assumed parameters • Natural mortality – agreed upon by workgroup as 0.23 for snow and Tanner crabs and 0.18 for King crabs. • Maturity curves by size for males and females – estimated from survey data • Mean weight by size and sex – estimated from survey data
Assumed parameters • Mating Ratio – number of females one male will mate with • Mortality of discarded crab in directed pot fisheries (agreed upon as 50% for base runs) • Groundfish trawl discard mortality (80%). • Form (Beverton and Holt or Ricker) and steepness of the SR curves
Tanner and snow crab males and females have terminal molt at maturity. • Both males and females have only one year of their mature life when they should be new shell (if new shell was equivalent to shell age < 1 year)
Snow CrabCalculation of effective female spawning biomass • Total effective sp biomass = efspbio + old shell male sp biomass
Estimation of effective male spawning biomass using mating ratio • If an assumed mating ratio is used then emspbio is, • , if NMM0 > (NMF/MR). • This is applied only if there are more males than are needed to fertilize the females, that is if NMM0 > (NMF/MR). The use of the mating ratio reduces the male spawning biomass at F=0, to only the biomass that is needed to fertilize the mature females (at F=0).
Spawning biomass per recruit model results for snow crab. Mating ratio = 1.7(sex ratio at F=0). Total effective spawning biomass is female effective spawning biomass plus effective male spawning biomass (no mating ratio).
Figure 3. Mating ratio = 3.0. Primiparous and mulitparous separate. Total effective spawning biomass is female effective spawning biomass plus old shell male spawning biomass(no Mating ratio).
Red King Crab mating ratio 1:2(sex ratio at F=0), discard mortality 50%, all females together in effective spawning biomass calculation, nonmolting males
Red King crab Mating ratio 1:3, 50% discard mortality,prim and mult together, nonmolting males
Red King Crab mating ratio 1:3, discard mortality 50%, MR applied separately to primiparous and multiparous in effective spawning biomass calculation, nonmolting males(each male can potentially mate with 6 females)
Red King crab Mating ratio 1:3, 50% discard mortality,prim and mult separate, all males (2005 F for red king crab = 0.31, max target F=0.76)
Red King crab Mating ratio 1:3, 50% discard mortality,prim and mult separate, nonmolting males
