This is the number of individuals that you are going to harvest in each interval. Make each cell address equal to the value of your Fixed Annual Yield, with the exception of t0, which make equal to 0 Calculate Total harvest over the 100-year projection by summing the harvest column (should equal 100, at this stage) You must now subtract the harvest each year from the numbers in the population …….BUT…….do you subtract the harvest from the population BEFORE or AFTER it has reproduced? What is the difference? Nt+1 = ((Nt – ht+1).R) / {1 + [(Nt – ht+1).(R-1)/K]} Nt+1 = ((Nt R) / {1 + [Nt.(R-1)/K]}) – ht+1 Constant Yield Model docsity.com DIFF 0 1 2 3 6 10 18 30 49 80 130 212 344 555 888 1405 2181 3292 4760 6473 8103 9148 9196 8226 6627 4904 3407 2265 1462 926 579 359 222 136 83 51 31 19 R 1.63 Fixed Annual Yield 1 K 368974 Total Harvest 100 t N R Additions Harvest 0 12 1.4941 6 0 1 18 1.5390 10 1 2 28 1.5709 16 1 3 43 1.5923 26 1 4 69 1.6062 42 1 5 111 1.6150 68 1 6 179 1.6204 111 1 7 290 1.6236 181 1 8 471 1.6252 295 1 9 766 1.6257 479 1 10 1245 1.6252 778 1 11 2023 1.6236 1261 1 12 3284 1.6204 2037 1 13 5322 1.6150 3273 1 14 8594 1.6062 5210 1 15 13805 1.5924 8177 1 16 21982 1.5710 12551 1 17 34533 1.5392 18620 1 18 53153 1.4944 26276 1 19 79429 1.4353 34577 1 20 114007 1.3644 41544 1 21 155550 1.2879 44787 1 22 200338 1.2145 42981 1 23 243319 1.1516 36881 1 24 280199 1.1025 28727 1 25 308926 1.0671 20735 1 26 329661 1.0429 14158 1 27 343819 1.0271 9304 1 28 353123 1.0169 5961 1 29 359085 1.0105 3758 1 30 362843 1.0065 2345 1 31 365188 1.0040 1454 1 32 366641 1.0024 898 1 33 367539 1.0015 553 1 34 368092 1.0009 340 1 35 368431 1.0006 209 1 36 368640 1.0003 128 1 37 368769 1.0002 79 1 B E F O R E R 1.63 Fixed Annual Yield 1 K 368974 Total Harvest 100 t N R Additions Harvest 0 12 1.5466 7 0 1 19 1.5761 11 1 2 29 1.5957 17 1 3 47 1.6084 28 1 4 75 1.6165 46 1 5 121 1.6214 75 1 6 197 1.6244 123 1 7 320 1.6260 200 1 8 520 1.6266 326 1 9 845 1.6265 530 1 10 1375 1.6255 860 1 11 2235 1.6234 1393 1 12 3628 1.6197 2248 1 13 5877 1.6136 3606 1 14 9483 1.6039 5727 1 15 15210 1.5887 8954 1 16 24163 1.5654 13661 1 17 37824 1.5311 20088 1 18 57913 1.4833 27990 1 19 85902 1.4215 36207 1 20 122109 1.3488 42589 1 21 164698 1.2722 44835 1 22 209534 1.2005 42011 1 23 251545 1.1403 35281 1 24 286826 1.0941 27004 1 25 313830 1.0613 19238 1 26 333068 1.0391 13016 1 27 346084 1.0246 8501 1 28 354585 1.0153 5425 1 29 360010 1.0095 3411 1 30 363422 1.0058 2125 1 31 365547 1.0036 1316 1 32 366863 1.0022 812 1 33 367675 1.0014 500 1 34 368175 1.0008 307 1 35 368482 1.0005 189 1 36 368671 1.0003 116 1 37 368787 1.0002 71 1 A F T E R 0 50000 100000 150000 200000 250000 300000 350000 400000 0 6 1 2 1 8 2 4 3 0 3 6 4 2 4 8 5 4 6 0 6 6 7 2 7 8 8 4 9 0 9 6 Time (Years) N u m b e rs Before After docsity.com STEP 3 Adjust your value of Fixed Annual Yield and adjust the time of first harvesting in order to maximise the total harvest over the 100 year projection BUT remember – it is important that the final R (R99) value is greater than or equal to 1.0000 (i.e. the population is sustainable) PLAY Advantages Fixed Yield Models are liked by industry because they can plan plant and workforce in advance Communities like Fixed Yield Models because they know how much money will be coming in – in advance Disadvantages Data-hungry: small errors in Yield can result in population crashes docsity.com In our example here – the maximum number of individuals that recruit to the population is 44 524 over the period 21- 22 t N R Additions 0 12 1.6300 8 1 20 1.6299 12 2 32 1.6299 20 3 52 1.6299 33 4 85 1.6298 53 5 138 1.6296 87 6 225 1.6294 142 7 367 1.6290 231 8 597 1.6283 375 9 972 1.6273 610 10 1582 1.6256 990 11 2572 1.6229 1602 12 4174 1.6185 2581 13 6755 1.6114 4130 14 10885 1.6003 6534 15 17418 1.5829 10154 16 27572 1.5567 15350 17 42922 1.5187 22263 18 65185 1.4668 30425 19 95610 1.4012 38363 20 133974 1.3265 43749 21 177723 1.2505 44524 22 222247 1.1816 40362 23 262610 1.1254 32928 24 295538 1.0833 24629 25 320167 1.0539 17251 26 337417 1.0342 11535 27 348952 1.0214 7475 28 356428 1.0133 4747 29 361174 1.0082 2975 30 364150 1.0051 1850 31 365999 1.0031 1144 32 367143 1.0019 705 33 367849 1.0012 434 34 368283 1.0007 267 35 368550 1.0004 164 36 368714 1.0003 101 37 368814 1.0002 62 38 368876 1.0001 38 39 368914 1.0001 23 40 368937 1.0000 14 41 368951 1.0000 9 42 368960 1.0000 5 0 50000 100000 150000 200000 250000 300000 350000 400000 0 7 1 4 2 1 2 8 3 5 4 2 4 9 5 6 6 3 7 0 7 7 8 4 9 1 9 8 Time (years) N u m b e rs 0 10000 20000 30000 40000 50000 Population Size Recruitment Look at the relationship between recruitment and time.

Weather conditions have an impact on the amount of resources available to a population, which in turn influences the carrying capacity. We need to build some sort of environmental variability into our models if they are to more “accurately” reflect patterns in the real world, and to minimise the chance of over-exploiting the population when we start to harvest. Before we start this exercise, we need to know how often “bad” or “good” weather conditions occur, and we need to know how these affect the carrying capacity. Whilst the first set of information can be readily obtained from long- term weather sets, the latter is difficult to pin down. That does not matter in a modeling scenario – because we are exploring the processes rather than the actual numbers. In our models, we are going to use random numbers to indicate the state of the weather each year, and we are going to ask MSExcel to look at these numbers and see if they are greater or less than the numbers we propose to indicate “good” or “bad” weather, and then to assign a carrying capacity accordingly. This modified k value will then be used in our equations to model population sizedocsity.com Weather calculations If “bad” weather happens, on average, once every 15 years, we can say that the probability of bad weather is 1 / 15 = 0.0667 If “good” weather happens, on average, once every 9 years, we can say that the probability of good weather is 1 / 9 = 0.111 http://www.cmhenderson.com/images/jsrnclds.jpg h ttp ://w w w .le w e s -flo o d -a c tio n .o rg .u k /lfa -im a g e s /s p e n c e s la n e .jp g h ttp ://i1 .tre k e a rth .c o m /p h o to s /1 6 7 7 9 /d ro u g h t-v ic tim .jp g docsity.com In your spreadsheet, you should set up a new column labeled “Weather A”. Weather is a random number in our model, so ask MSExcel to generate a random number each year =RAND() The next thing we need to do is to ask MSExcel to identify the weather each year as Good, Bad or Normal, and we do this using the IF function. Incorporating weather into an unexploited population with: N0 = 12, R = 1.63, K = 368 974 At this point, no two of us are going to have the same weather conditions. Every time you do something to the worksheet, your weather conditions will change (as they will too if you press the F9 key). You can convert the constantly changing numbers into values using the edit, copy, paste special, values function – BUT DON’T yet The logic of the IF function is as follows…. We ask MSExcel to look at the contents of a particular cell address and if the contents conform to some pre-established condition, then it will return one answer and if it doesn’t then it will return another answer docsity.com How? 1.0000 Random Number Weather is a random number in our model and varies from 0.0000 – 1.0000 In other words, if the random number is less than 0.0667, then it must be bad weather 0.0667 Bad Weather The probability of bad weather is 0.0667: the probability of good weather is 0.111 0.1111 Good Weather On the other hand, if the random number is more than 0.8889 (1.0000 – 0.1111) , then it must be good weather docsity.com R 1.63 0.066667 K 368974 0.111111 0.25 92244 1.69 623566 t N R Additions Weather A Weather B New K 0 12 1.6300 8 0.54 NORMAL 368974 1 20 1.6299 12 0.50 NORMAL 368974 2 32 1.6299 20 0.28 NORMAL 368974 3 52 1.6299 33 0.30 NORMAL 368974 4 85 1.6298 53 0.05 GOOD 623566 5 138 1.6296 87 0.01 GOOD 623566 6 225 1.6294 142 0.20 NORMAL 368974 7 367 1.6290 231 0.90 NORMAL 368974 8 597 1.6283 375 0.34 NORMAL 368974 9 972 1.6273 610 0.45 NORMAL 368974 10 1582 1.6256 990 0.50 NORMAL 368974 11 2572 1.6229 1602 0.76 NORMAL 368974 12 4174 1.6185 2581 0.26 NORMAL 368974 13 6755 1.6114 4130 0.28 NORMAL 368974 14 10885 1.6003 6534 0.59 NORMAL 368974 15 17418 1.5829 10154 0.55 NORMAL 368974 16 27572 1.5567 15350 0.45 NORMAL 368974 17 42922 1.5187 22263 0.44 NORMAL 368974 18 65185 1.4668 30425 0.25 NORMAL 368974 19 95610 1.4012 38363 0.32 NORMAL 368974 20 133974 1.3265 43749 0.75 NORMAL 368974 21 177723 1.2505 44524 0.54 NORMAL 368974 22 222247 1.1816 40362 0.32 NORMAL 368974 23 262610 1.1254 32928 0.04 GOOD 623566 24 295538 1.0833 24629 0.20 NORMAL 368974 25 320167 1.0539 17251 0.84 NORMAL 368974 26 337417 1.0342 11535 0.17 NORMAL 368974 27 348952 1.0214 7475 0.47 NORMAL 368974 28 356428 1.0133 4747 0.95 BAD 92244 29 361174 1.0082 2975 0.62 NORMAL 368974 30 364150 1.0051 1850 0.34 NORMAL 368974 31 365999 1.0031 1144 0.75 NORMAL 368974 32 367143 1.0019 705 0.01 GOOD 623566 Good Factor Good k Probability of Bad Weather Probability of Good Weather Bad Factor Bad k Next you must set new K values based upon the effect that weather has on K Under Good weather conditions New K = 1.69K Under Bad weather conditions, New K = 0.25K Under Normal weather conditions New K = K Use another =IF function =IF(F9=“GOOD”,G$6,IF(F9=“BAD”,G$4,B$2)) A B C D E F G 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 docsity.com You must now make your population numbers reflect this new K value R 1.63 0.066667 K 368974 0.111111 0.25 92244 1.69 623566 t N R Additions Weather A Weather B New K New N 0 12 1.6300 8 0.48 NORMAL 368974 12 1 20 1.6299 12 0.70 NORMAL 368974 20 2 32 1.6299 20 0.24 NORMAL 368974 32 3 52 1.6299 33 0.40 NORMAL 368974 52 4 85 1.6298 53 0.28 NORMAL 368974 85 5 138 1.6296 87 0.06 GOOD 623566 138 6 225 1.6294 142 0.60 NORMAL 368974 225 7 367 1.6290 231 0.48 NORMAL 368974 367 8 597 1.6283 375 0.09 GOOD 623566 597 9 972 1.6273 610 0.57 NORMAL 368974 972 10 1582 1.6256 990 0.99 BAD 92244 1575 11 2572 1.6229 1602 0.68 NORMAL 368974 2560 12 4174 1.6185 2581 0.25 NORMAL 368974 4154 13 6755 1.6114 4130 0.58 NORMAL 368974 6724 14 10885 1.6003 6534 0.92 NORMAL 368974 10836 15 17418 1.5829 10154 0.61 NORMAL 368974 17341 16 27572 1.5567 15350 0.46 NORMAL 368974 27453 17 42922 1.5187 22263 0.52 NORMAL 368974 42745 18 65185 1.4668 30425 0.45 NORMAL 368974 64935 19 95610 1.4012 38363 0.27 NORMAL 368974 95280 20 133974 1.3265 43749 0.08 GOOD 623566 141669 21 177723 1.2505 44524 0.76 NORMAL 368974 185943 22 222247 1.1816 40362 0.61 NORMAL 368974 230049 23 262610 1.1254 32928 0.12 NORMAL 368974 269229 24 295538 1.0833 24629 0.54 NORMAL 368974 300641 25 320167 1.0539 17251 0.18 NORMAL 368974 323820 26 337417 1.0342 11535 0.98 BAD 92244 164350 27 348952 1.0214 7475 0.80 NORMAL 368974 209188 28 356428 1.0133 4747 0.36 NORMAL 368974 251240 29 361174 1.0082 2975 0.61 NORMAL 368974 286583 Good Factor Good k Probability of Bad Weather Probability of Good Weather Bad Factor Bad k 0 100000 200000 300000 400000 500000 600000 0 7 1 4 2 1 2 8 3 5 4 2 4 9 5 6 6 3 7 0 7 7 8 4 9 1 9 8 Time (years) N u m b e rs REMEMBER – NO TWO will have the same results docsity.com That said – when you start to harvest from a population (inevitably during its growth phase), the population is maintained in a constant state of growth Population (growing under intra-specific competition) Harvest (MSY) Population (growing without intra-specific competition) 0 50000 100000 150000 200000 250000 0 7 1 4 2 1 2 8 3 5 4 2 4 9 5 6 6 3 7 0 7 7 8 4 9 1 9 8 Time (years) N u m b e rs As a consequence, using Fixed R Models may not be unreasonable……….docsity.com So………………… Start off with the basic life table, calculate p and m, and project the population into the future (e.g.) 100 time units.

Having done that, you will need to subtract this number from the number of individuals of that age at that time from the population table. This will inevitably result in Circular Argument errors in MSExcel….which means that you need to build the formulae projecting populations into the future into the harvest table too! Ensure that harvest at t0 = 0 TOTALS 2922413 0 0 0 0 0 2922413 Effort 0.00000001 0 0 0 0 0 p 0.7 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 0 Efficiency 1 1 1 1 1 1 m 0 1.3 1.5 1.8 2.2 0 EE 0.00000001 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 1 2 3 4 5 TOTAL R X 0 1 2 3 4 5 TOTAL 0 89756 62829 18849 3770 377 0 175581 1.158389 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 117566 62829 18849 3770 377 0 203391 1.220138 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 142873 82296 18849 3770 377 0 248165 1.223016 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 174663 100011 24689 3770 377 0 303509 1.223182 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 213665 122264 30003 4938 377 0 371247 1.223123 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 261342 149566 36679 6001 494 0 454081 1.223119 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 319650 182939 44870 7336 600 0 555395 1.223122 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 390971 223755 54882 8974 734 0 679316 1.223121 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8 478206 273680 67127 10976 897 0 830886 1.223121 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 584903 334744 82104 13425 1098 0 1016274 1.223121 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10 715408 409432 100423 16421 1343 0 1243027 1.223121 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 11 875031 500785 122830 20085 1642 0 1520372 1.223121 11 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12 1070269 612521 150236 24566 2008 0 1859600 1.223121 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13 1309068 749188 183756 30047 2457 0 2274517 1.223121 13 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 POPULATION HARVEST With such a low level of Effort, you should only start to harvest any whole organisms at time 32 docsity.com TOTALS 0 0 0 377 525 118 533 279 585 803 749 0 657 110 922 282 Effort 0 0 0 0.1 1 0 p 0.7 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 0 Efficiency 1 1 1 1 1 1 m 0 1.3 1.5 1.8 2.2 0 EE 0 0 0 0.1 1 0 X 0 1 2 3 4 5 TOTAL R X 0 1 2 3 4 5 TOTAL 0 89756 62829 18849 3770 377 0 175581 1.151518 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 116737 62829 18849 3770 0 0 202184 1.214848 1 0 0 0 0 377 0 377 2 141289 81716 18849 3770 0 0 245623 1.218604 2 0 0 0 0 377 0 377 3 172131 98902 24515 3770 0 0 299317 1.219559 3 0 0 0 0 377 0 377 4 209970 120491 29671 4903 0 0 365035 1.219159 4 0 0 0 0 377 0 377 5 255975 146979 36147 5934 0 0 445036 1.219221 5 0 0 0 0 490 0 490 6 312091 179183 44094 7229 0 0 542597 1.219222 6 0 0 0 0 593 0 593 7 380509 218464 53755 8819 0 0 661547 1.219219 7 0 0 0 0 723 0 723 8 463924 266356 65539 10751 0 0 806571 1.214669 8 0 0 0 0 882 0 882 9 563266 324747 79907 11797 0 0 979717 1.215342 9 0 0 0 1311 1075 0 2386 10 684598 394286 97424 14383 0 0 1190691 1.215276 10 0 0 0 1598 1180 0 2778 11 831978 479218 118286 17536 0 0 1447019 1.215267 11 0 0 0 1948 1438 0 3387 12 1011073 582385 143766 21291 0 0 1758515 1.215272 12 0 0 0 2366 1754 0 4119 13 1228730 707751 174715 25878 0 0 2137074 1.215271 13 0 0 0 2875 2129 0 5004 14 1493240 860111 212325 31449 0 0 2597125 1.215271 14 0 0 0 3494 2588 0 6082 15 1814691 1045268 258033 38219 0 0 3156211 1.215271 15 0 0 0 4247 3145 0 7391 16 2205342 1270284 313580 46446 0 0 3835653 1.215271 16 0 0 0 5161 3822 0 8983 17 2680089 1543740 381085 56444 0 0 4661359 1.215271 17 0 0 0 6272 4645 0 10916 18 3257036 1876063 463122 68595 0 0 5664816 1.215271 18 0 0 0 7622 5644 0 13266 19 3958182 2279925 562819 83362 0 0 6884288 1.215271 19 0 0 0 9262 6860 0 16122 20 4810265 2770728 683978 101307 0 0 8366278 1.215271 20 0 0 0 11256 8336 0 19593 21 5845778 3367186 831218 123116 0 0 10167298 1.215271 21 0 0 0 13680 10131 0 23810 22 7104206 4092044 1010156 149619 0 0 12356026 1.215271 22 0 0 0 16624 12312 0 28936 POPULATION HARVEST PLAY Adjust Effort of each age class, adjust time of first harvest in order to maximize total harvest.
