    <dc:title>Assessing biological reference points for geoduck clam fishery</dc:title>

    <dc:description>Files
1.The &quot;refpoints.m&quot; file contains a script to be used with the MATLAB software. The script calculates the probabilities that the biomass of a marine sessile resource as Panopea globosa will reach four fishery management reference points while being exploited at a constant exploitation rate (Larios-Castro et al., 2023).
2.The file &quot;PreviousYears.xlsx&quot; is an example matrix of size 4x4 with fictitious data on the magnitude of biomass three or four years prior to reaching the values defined as reference points (65%, 50%, 40%, and 30% with respect to virgin biomass). This array is necessary for the &quot;refpoints.m&quot; function to work.

Use
1. The &quot;refpoints&quot; function creates four excel (.xls) files (Management Threshold Point, 0.65; Target Reference Point, 0.5; Limit Reference Point 0.4; and Depleted, 0.3), each containing a matrix of the calculated probabilities of reaching a fishery management reference point as the stock biomass is exploited and decreases.
The columns of the matrix of each file correspond to 1. the Bt/Bv values. 2 - 7 correspond to the probabilities obtained considering six different standard deviations, the optimal value, a decrease and four increments with respect to the optimal value (sigmas = -10%, 0% +5%, +10%, +20%, +30 %).
Additionally, the probability values calculated for each reference point will appear in the command window from the MATLAB interface.
2. The &quot;refpoints&quot; function needs an array in a file with a &quot;.xlsx&quot; extension previously constructed by the user (for example, PreviousYears.xlsx). This matrix should contain the Bt/Bv values for the three or four years prior to the reference point.
The function will ask to select the .xlsx file manually, so you will have to save a copy in the &quot;Current Folder&quot; from the MATLAB interface along with the function file &quot;refpoints.m&quot;.
3. &quot;Ref&quot; is a necessary vector of the four values corresponding to the four reference points. It must be previously defined by the user, for example: Ref = [0.65 0.5 0. 4 0.3]. With this option you can change the reference point values if necessary.
4. The &quot;refpoints&quot; function returns the values derived from the different standard deviations (sigmas) obtained from the &quot;previous years&quot; matrix.
