Individual-based modelling to fine-tune management measures for commercial demersal sharks
Individual-Based Models (IBMs) can be used to study population dynamics by emphasising individual variability in life-history traits and behaviour.Here, we built a zero-dimensional IBM to describe the population dynamics of smooth-hound sharks (Mustelus spp.) living in the northern Adriatic Sea, a highly Chest Freezer exploited basin of the Mediter
