* » Abstract |
The goals of this project are to further develop a framework for estimation of time-varying natural mortality in Pacific salmon stocks based on widely available CWT recovery data, and to develop a set of R/ADMB programs that will allow broad-scale implementation of these methods for West Coast salmon stocks. The basic ideas and structural framework for this approach have already been developed, and found promising (Hankin et al. 2005, Hankin and Mohr 1993). However, this approach is not routinely used in assessments, in part due to a lack of robust and flexible tools allowing easy application to new datasets. In addition, further analytic work is required to address details of implementation and to better understand sensitivity to observation error and model mis-specification. To make this approach broadly useful, we will develop efficient, modern, and portable code (e.g., in R) to extract the required inputs from CWT data files and perform the statistical fitting. Because the likelihood surface is high-dimensional, robust and speedy optimization routines are necessary, e.g. using ADMB (Fournier et al. 2012). We will explore adjustments such as estimating standard errors that account for overdispersion (Lambert et al. 2006), and allowing for incomplete brood years, which would expand the scope of datasets to which the model can be applied.

* Purpose |
Estimates of natural morality are an integral component of stock assessment, and it is known that many results from stock assessments can be heavily influenced by the choice of natural mortality (e.g., biological reference points, Goodyear 1993). Yet, owing to the difficulty of directly estimating natural mortality, fixed external estimates or assumed values are frequently used. Temporal and/or age-dependent variation in natural mortality undoubtedly exists and the assumption of fixed natural mortality likely results in assessment errors. However, estimation of temporal variation in natural mortality in stock assessment has been infrequently performed (Brodziak et al. 2009). Cohort reconstructions (Hilborn and Walters 1992) performed on tagged cohorts of salmon are the backbone of salmon assessment. Reconstruction of cohorts from coded-wire-tag (CWT) data allows estimation of age-specific abundance, harvest rates, maturation rates, and other vital rates used for salmon management. Assumption of a constant natural mortality rate for adult salmon is required for statistical identifiability when using current techniques that treat cohorts independently (Hankin et al. 2005). Unfortunately, this means that vital rate estimates are biased to an unknown extent by assumed and arbitrary values assigned to adult natural mortality rates. For example, a real increase in the natural mortality rate between age-3 and age-4 in a particular year would be erroneously interpreted instead as unusually high maturation at age-3.
