Indices of abundance based on fishery catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) are important
components of many stock assessments, particularly when fishery-independent surveys are …

We describe and illustrate a spatio-temporal modelling approach for analyzing age-or size-
specific catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) data to develop indices of relative abundance and …

Spatio-temporal models have become key tools for evaluating population trends and habitat
usage. We developed a spatio-temporal modelling framework employing a combination of …

Abstract Effects of offshore wind farm (OSW) development in the US on fishery resources
have been predicted based on European experience. A seven-year study of the first US …

Abstract The northern Bering Sea is transitioning from an Arctic to subarctic fish community
as climate warms. Scientists and managers aim to understand how these changing …

Oceanographers have spent decades developing annual indices that summarize physical
conditions in marine ecosystems. Examples include the Pacific Decadal Oscillation …

In many situations, species distribution models need to make use of multiple data sources to
address their objectives. We developed a spatio-temporal modelling framework that …

Indices of abundance used to inform stock assessment models are commonly derived from
fishery-dependent data sources. However, fishery catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) are often …

Delta-models (aka hurdle models) are widely used to fit biomass samples that include zeros
and a skewed response for positive catches, and spatio-temporal extensions of these …

Spatio-temporal models are widely applied to standardise research survey data and are
increasingly used to generate density maps and indices from other data sources. We …
