[FLR-list] ssb constraint with FLash

Hi Laurie,

In your example below, you use ssb as a target, not as a minimum. This was working also for me in the previous example, but that is not really what we want? F should be the target, but SSB is just a minimum threshold, exactly like a TAC constraint?

There are a couple of issues neither of which should cause a problem but may point to a bug somewhere.
The ple4 object differs from the one Clara is using as it start at age 0 not age 1, plus it doesnt come from XSA so the F in the plusgroup is not the same as in plusgrpoup-1.
It looks like there is a bug in "[" i.e.

range(ple4[-1])
      min       max plusgroup   minyear   maxyear   minfbar   maxfbar
        2        10        -1      1957      2008         2         6


The following code works as expected, it is a long winded way of constraining SSB. It points in a problem not in the estimation procedure (LU decomposition) but maybe how it is being set up.


plot(window(stk,start=2006))

stk=window(iter(MyObj,1),end=2008)
stk =fwdWindow(stk,eql,end=2010)

target <-fwdControl(data.frame(year  =c(2009,2009),
                             val     =c(.3,180000),
                             #min     =c(NA,180000),
                             quantity=c("f","ssb")))

stk.=fwd(stk,ctrl=target ,
             sr=eql)

fbar(stk.)[,ac(2009)]
An object of class "FLQuant"
, , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

     year
age   2009
  all 0.21768

units:  f
> ssb( stk.)[,ac(2009:2010)]
An object of class "FLQuant"
, , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

     year
age   2009   2010
  all 227124 180000

units:  NA


Note that the SSS constraint refers to the SSB at the end of the year if harvest.spwn.

Hej, Thanks for help. I send my object - a stf from North Sea Haddock with 10 iterations.

Is it a bug or poor documentation?



We used to have  a page on TYFLR with all the different HCRs implemented using FLash. This included the STECF ones with numerous sequential constraints, on F, TAC, SSB etc. I have also implemented some simpler interfaces for fwd. I am currently redoing this see http://rscloud.iccat.int/Tutorials/MSE/hcr.pdf



As well as being documentation this will also provide a set of tests to make sure no bugs creep in during the winter.



As Iago says could you provide an example, and if it is not already included in hcr.pdf I will add it. After checking there isnt a bug of course.

Hi,



I am trying to replicate the issue, using our dear ple4, but I failed

to do so. If I set a min value for ssb in 2010, which is higher than

what

f=0.8 in 2009 would give me, I get as expected a lower F and the right

ssb, try code below.



Can you send me your FLStock object?



Cheers,





Iago





library(FLash)

library(FLAssess)



data(ple4)



ple4 <- stf(ple4,3)



maxF <-fwdControl(data.frame(year=2009,val=0.8,quantity="f")) #  an

example with high F that decreases biomass a lot



ple4 <-

fwd(ple4,ctrl=maxF,sr=list(model="mean",params=FLPar(1)),sr.residuals=

FLQuant(3500000,dimnames=list(year=2009:2011)))



fbar(ple4)[,"2009"]



maxF <-fwdControl(data.frame(year=2009,val=c(0.8,NA),min=c(NA,350000),

quantity=c("f","ssb")))



ple4 <-

fwd(ple4,ctrl=maxF,sr=list(model="mean",params=FLPar(1)),sr.residuals=

FLQuant(3500000,dimnames=list(year=2009:2011)))



fbar(ple4)[,"2009"]

ssb(ple4)[,"2009"]

ssb(ple4)[,"2010"]

Hi all,



We are just back from ICES MIXFISH, where we once again made much use

of FLash power... (still on R 2.15.3 windows 32 bits, we had some

troubles at the advice meeting in May with using the new FLFleet

package for R3.1, we haven't tried again - Flash 2.5.0)



This time we wanted to some SSB-based HCR - Typically, we have a target F with some SSB minimum constraints - for example the biomass must stay above Bpa, or if the biomass is below Bpa, the target is reduced such as SSB should be at least increasing...



But I kept having troubles making it to work - I had tried this some years ago and it worked OK as far as I remember, but last week I did not manage to get around the problem.



For example (with target F for 2014, and SSB constraint applying on

SSB at 1st January 2015 at the end of the fwd year)



maxF <-fwdControl(data.frame(year=2014,val=0.8,quantity="f")) #  an

example with high F that decreases biomass a lot Proj <-

fwd(MyObj,ctrl=maxF,sr=list(model="mean",params=FLPar(1)),sr.residual

s=FLQuant(3500000,dimnames=list(year=2014:2015)))



This works :

fbar(Proj)[,"2014"]

     An object of class "FLQuant"

     iters:  10

     , , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

          year

     age   2014

       all 0.8(0)

     units:  f



ssb(Proj)[,ac(2014:2015)]

     An object of class "FLQuant"

     iters:  10

     , , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

          year

     age   2014      2015

     all 172983(0)  77323(0)

     units:  NA



but this does not work (here an example where the SSB constraint

should be activated)



maxF

<-fwdControl(data.frame(year=2014,val=c(0.8,NA),min=c(NA,150000),

quantity=c("f","ssb"))) Proj <-

fwd(MyObj,ctrl=maxF,sr=list(model="mean",params=FLPar(1)),sr.residual

s=FLQuant(3500000,dimnames=list(year=2014:2015)))



fbar(Proj)[,"2014"]

     An object of class "FLQuant"

     iters:  10

     , , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

          year

     age   2014

       all 0.016914(0)

     units:  f



ssb(Proj)[,ac(2014:2015)]

     An object of class "FLQuant"

     iters:  10

     , , unit = unique, season = all, area = unique

          year

     age   2014      2015

     all 172983(0) 172983(0)

     units:  NA





and this doesn't work either when the SSB is not constraining (e.g.

SSB limit so low that it is always achieved). Only if I specify ssb

as a value inn fwdControl does it compute correctly, but that is not

the idea, it should be a minimum





I have tried several ways around this but cannot find out... Any idea of what is getting wrong?



Thanks in advance,

Cheers

Clara
