 ==== Setting of Target Fishing Mortalities ====
-Target Fishing Mortality parameters are set to default values the first time a model is loaded. Biomass limit = 10% of Ecopath biomass, Biomass base = 40% of Ecopath biomass and F. max = fishing mortality rates calculated from the Ecopath inputs.  The MSY(Maximum Sustainable Yield) search can be used to compute values for the Target Fishing Mortality parameters. When the MSY is run it will overwrite the current parameters of the Target Fishing Mortality. The MSY search is accessible via the '''Input reference level''' > '''MSY''' dialogue.

-   * Check that the Assessment CV values are not zero.
+   * Check the Assessment CV values. If they are all zero then there will be no variation in the output.
+   * Make sure the Quota values are set such that a quota limitation will be applied. If catches never exceed the quota then there will no be any variation in the output.
  * Quota never seems to come into effect.
