The fleet/effort dynamics simulation model uses the idea that there are two time scales of fisher response: 13 13 14 14 1) A short time response of fishing effort to potential income from fishing, within the constraints imposed by current fleet size, and 15 15 16 2) A longer time investment/depreciation ‘population dynamics’for capital capacity to fish (fleet size, vessel characteristics).16 2) A longer time investment/depreciation 'population dynamics' for capital capacity to fish (fleet size, vessel characteristics). 17 17 18 These response scales are represented in Ecosim by two ‘state variables’for each gear type ''g''.18 These response scales are represented in Ecosim by two 'state variables' for each gear type ''g''. 19 19 20 20 '''Fast time response model''' … … 26 26 [[Image(wiki:EwEugImages:0800003A.png)]] 27 27 28 where ''i'' = ecological species or biomass group, ''q'g, i'' is the catchability coefficient (possibly dependent on Bi) for species'' i'' by gear ''g'', and ''P,,g,i,,'' is the market price obtained per biomass of'' i'' by gear gfishers.
