| A standard yield per recruit (YPR) analysis is used to analyse the effects of minimum size regulations on bluefin tuna from the Eastern stock (East Atlantic and Mediterranean). Analyses were based on a selectivity vector computed over the period 1990- 1994 for which data were more reliable and VPA (performed during the 2002 stock assessment) showed a relatively good convergence. This selectivity vector was modified according to different minimum size regulations and implementation error levels. It is concluded that: (i) perfect implementation of the size limit regulation adopted in 2004 would increase YPR by 4.3% relative to the size limit adopted in 2002, and by 8.8% relative to the pattern realized in the early 1990s; (ii) YPR is however expected to... |
