The Data-Limited Methods Toolkit (DLMtool) is an R package that uses computer simulations of real-world fisheries to help scientists and managers with three common objectives:
- Identifying effective management methods given the uncertainties associated with data-limited fisheries
- Computing explicit management recommendations based on the currently available data
- Prioritizing future data collection programs
A comprehensive user guide for DLMtool is available here.
