Abstract

The present study evaluates potential alternative assessment methods for sharks, using oceanic whitetip shark (Carcharhinus longimanus) as a case study, allowing comparisons with the current age-structured integrated stock assessment of this species. The latter was conducted in parallel to the present study, and used Stock Synthesis 3 (SS3) software.
