Uncertain population dynamic and state variables of alfonsino (Beryx splendens)

Alfonsino (Beryx splendens) is a species associated with seamounts, with an important fishery in Juan Fernandez archipelago, Chile (33°40'S, 79°00'W). Since 2004, this resource has been managed by catch quotas estimated from stock assessment models. The alfonsino model involves high levels...
