If the stock 'crashes' completely under heavy fishing, reshape the fishing rate to stop a few years after the crash, to check for a 'multiple equilibrium' outcome: i.e., for some models, and especially for top predators, there may be 'delayed depensation' effect where the predator fails to recover after heavy fishing, due to increases in species that it eats that are in turn competitors/predators on its juveniles—these species can cause 'recruitment failure'. |
