Clusters: area / quarter
5. Validation
Model validation approach
Generic estimators - parameter xp can be
exchanged.
Estimate of parameters recorded in census:
xp = catch weight
xp = position
xp = time
Errors quantified in terms of estimated
precision (confidence intervals)
9. Conclusions
Classical model validation supports use of key sampling
programs.
The reference fleet sample well important parameters: catch-
weight, position, time an depth (within clusters).
Gear not adressed
Clustering trade-off with coverage. Total coverage 77% for
cod.
