Marine recreational fisheries statistics survey for northern and central California, quarterly report no. 12, April to June, 1982

Field intercept Marine Recreational Fisheries Statistics Survey (MRFSS) data for central and northern California, collected in April to June 1982, is presented in a data report format. Data in this quarterly report are subdivided into three categories: primarily by five geographical areas; secondarily by fishing modes and gear types within each area; and finally by catch definition for each area, mode, and gear type. Tables are presented for these categories, each with three sections: sampled effort, ranked catch, and catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE). Also, within each area, length-frequency histograms and tables are presented for select species. (139pp.

Field intercept Marine Recreational Fisheries Statistics Survey (MRFSS) data for central and northern California, collected in October to December. 1981, is presented in a data report format. Data in this quarterly report are subdivided into three categories: primarily by five geographical areas; secondarily by fishing modes and gear types within each area; and finally by catch definition for each area, mode, and gear type. Tables are presented for these categories, each with three sections: sampled effort, ranked catch, and catch-per-unit-effort (CRUE). Also, within each area, length-frequency histograms and tables are presented for select species. (128pp.

Finite sample performance of sequential designs for model identification

Classical regression analysis is usually performed in two steps. In a first step an appropriate model is identified to describe the data generating process and in a second step statistical inference is performed in the identified model. An intuitively appealing approach to the design of experiment for these different purposes are sequential strategies, which use parts of the sample for model identification and adapt the design according to the outcome of the identification steps. In this paper we investigate the finite sample properties of two sequential design strategies, which were recently proposed in the literature. A detailed comparison of sequential designs for model discrimination in several regression models is given by means of a simulation study. Some non-sequential designs are also included in the study. --optimal design,robust design,discrimination design,sequential design,F-test
