Class

Optional component of the operating model that specifies the historical dynamics. The default option starts the projection with 1000 natural-origin juveniles and 1000 hatchery-origin juveniles (if there is hatchery production) in the oldest age class, representing single-brood year returns since there is only one age class in the population. Specify the abundance in all age class to simulate multiple brood-year returns.

Slots

Name: Character. Identifying name
InitNjuv_NOS: Numeric. The abundance of immature natural-origin fish at the beginning of the projection. Default assumes 1000 in the oldest age class, which creates a population with single brood year returns. Alternatively, provide a full array by [nsim, maxage, n_g] for multiple-brood year returns.
InitNjuv_HOS: Numeric. The abundance of immature hatchery origin fish at the beginning of the projection. Default assumes 1000 in the oldest age class, which creates a population with single brood year returns. Alternatively, provide a full array by [nsim, maxage, n_r] for multiple-brood year returns.
InitEsc_NOS: Optional Numeric length 1 or nsim. The natural-origin escapement (oldest age class) in the first year of the projection, to be used in lieu of InitNjuv_NOS. Currently only for single brood year returns.
InitEsc_HOS: Optional Numeric length 1 or nsim. The hatchery-origin escapement (oldest age class) in the first year of the projection, to be used in lieu of InitNjuv_HOS. Currently only for single brood year returns.
