Assisting ecosystem‐based fisheries management efforts using a comprehensive survey database, a large environmental database, and generalized additive models
Statistical habitat models, such as generalized additive models (GAM s), are key tools for
assisting ecosystem‐based fisheries management (EBFM) efforts. Predictions from GAM s …

Monitoring programs of the US Gulf of Mexico: inventory, development and use of a large monitoring database to map fish and invertebrate spatial distributions
Since the onset of fisheries science, monitoring programs have been implemented to
support stock assessments and fisheries management. Here, we take inventory of the …

Cross-shelf habitat shifts by red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) in the Gulf of Mexico
Habitat shifts that occur during the life cycles of marine fishes influence population
connectivity and structure. A generalized additive modeling approach was used to …

Accounting for spatial complexities in the calculation of biological reference points: effects of misdiagnosing population structure for stock status indicators
Misidentifying spatial population structure may result in harvest levels that are unable to
achieve management goals. We developed a spatially explicit simulation model to …
