The workshop will be held Jan 21-22, 2009 in the Traynor seminar room at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Seattle, WA. Sessions will begin at 9 AM each day. Primary goals for this workshop will be presentation of the new SS features, especially those most pertinent for west coast groundfish assessments; presentation of the graphical user interface; presentation of the updated output processor in R; and group discussion of consistent approaches to use of standard SS features such as selectivity functions, spawner-recruitment estimation and parameter bounds and priors. A limited number of WEBEX connection to other NMFS science centers will be supported. If you or a member of your staff are interested in attending or linking, please reply to richard.methot@noaa.gov.
