A Bayesian Schaefer surplus production model was used owing to an insufficient time series of age-structured data and lack of information on fishery vulnerability at size or age in the fisheries. It was fitted to one fishery dependent and six fishery independent stock biomass trend indices, and a reconstructed catch history back to 1935 when the population was assumed to be near to an unfished equilibrium. Some of the catch histories data were imputed from limited data. Informative Bayesian priors were used when estimating the survey proportionality constants, based in part on interviews with experienced fishermen. 1, record 2, English, - Bayesian%20Schaefer%20surplus%20production%20model

Un modèle de production excédentaire de Bayes et de Schaefer a été utilisé en raison du manque de séries chronologiques de données structurées en fonction de l'âge et du manque d'information sur la vulnérabilité selon la taille ou l'âge au cours des pêches. On y a intégré un indice de tendance de la biomasse du stock dépendant de la pêche et six indices indépendants, ainsi qu'un historique des captures reconstitué et reculant jusqu'en 1935, à une époque où la population était présumée atteindre un équilibre non exploité. Certaines données de l'historique des captures ont été imputées à partir de données limitées. Des distributions bayésiennes a priori ont été utilisées pour les paramètres du modèle au moment de l'estimation des constantes de proportionnalité du sondage, fondées en partie sur des entrevues réalisées auprès de pêcheurs d'expérience. 1, record 2, French, - mod%C3%A8le%20de%20production%20exc%C3%A9dentaire%20de%20Bayes%20et%20de%20Schaefer

The main objective of the ARCHISS project is to locate and retrieve, through improved cooperation between archivists and climatologists, relevant measured and proxy meteorological information, then to digitize them and to make them available to the international community. 2, record 3, English, - Archival%20Climate%20History%20Survey
