Ecotypes are groups of individuals with a population that have different life-history strategies. Consequently, ecotypes must share key fishery (`pi`, `Llo`, `Lup`, `Nc`, `rho`, `Hm` and `q`) and stock recruitment (`BH`, `RK`, `tR` and `Rmax`) parameters.y To use a yield-per-recruit approach it is also necessary to assume that the relative proportion of recruits (`RPR`) adopting each life-history strategy is independent of the size and composition of the parental stock. ## Two Ecotypes Consider a population with a smaller ecotype and a second larger ecotype that delays maturation in order to achieve sufficient size to switch to piscivory which allows it to grow much larger. ```{r} library(ypr) library(ggplot2) # for plotting ecotypes <- ypr_ecotypes( Linf2 = 200, L2 = c(100, 50), Ls = c(50, 75), pi = 0.05, names = c("small", "large"), RPR = c(0.8, 0.2)) ypr_plot_schedule(ecotypes) + scale_color_manual(values = c("black", "blue")) ypr_plot_schedule(ecotypes, x = "Age", y = "Spawning") + scale_color_manual(values = c("black", "blue")) ``` ### Fish ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4} ypr_plot_fish(ecotypes, color = "white") + scale_fill_manual(values = c("black", "blue")) ypr_plot_fish(ecotypes, x = "Length", y = "Caught", color = "white", binwidth = 15) + scale_fill_manual(values = c("black", "blue")) ``` ### Stock-Recruitment ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4} ypr_plot_sr(ecotypes, biomass = TRUE) ypr_tabulate_sr(ecotypes, biomass = TRUE) ``` ### Yield ```{r, fig.width=6, fig.height=4} ypr_tabulate_yield(ecotypes, biomass = TRUE) ypr_plot_yield(ecotypes, biomass = TRUE) ```
