| The biology of European hake has been largely studied, however some specific processes of its biology, especially growth and migration, are still poorly known. Those uncertainties have consequences on the quality of the stock assessments and on the stock management by limiting the possibility to assess the effect of spatial management measures. Therefore, we develop an integrated length-structured and spatialised model of population dynamics aiming at improving the estimation of unknown parameters of the population dynamic. The model relies on a state model describing the dynamics of the population and the fishing activity, and on an observation model describing the observation processes and providing a likelihood function. A review of the literature... |
