Simulation specific values for all Obs parameters can be set with a vector of length OM@nsim in OM@cpars$SLOT.
The correlations are maintained when the custom parameters are sampled. See Generating Correlated Life-History Parameters for more examples.
Catch Observations
Simulation and year-specific values for catch observation error can be added with OM@cpars$Cobs_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Effort Observations
Simulation and year-specific values for catch observation error can be added with OM@cpars$Eobs_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Biological Sampling
Simulation specific sampling bias for observed biological parameters can be as a vector of length OM@nsim with:
OM@cpars$LenMbiasOM@cpars$MbiasOM@cpars$KbiasOM@cpars$t0biasOM@cpars$LinfbiasOM@cpars$LFCbiasOM@cpars$LFSbias
Time-varying sampling bias is not possible at this stage.
To set simulation specific values for the observed steepness, use OM@cpars$hsim as a vector of length OM@nsim with the assumed steepness values.
Surveys and Indices
Simulation and year-specific values for observation error for index of total biomass be added with OM@cpars$Ierr_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Simulation and year-specific values for observation error for index of spawning biomass be added with OM@cpars$SpIerr_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Simulation and year-specific values for observation error for index of vulnerable biomass be added with OM@cpars$VIerr_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Simulation specific values for hyperstability/depletion parameter (beta) for index of total biomass be added with OM@cpars$I_beta with dimensions numeric vector length nsim.
Simulation specific values for hyperstability/depletion parameter (beta) for index of spawning biomass be added with OM@cpars$SpI_beta with dimensions numeric vector length nsim.
Simulation specific values for hyperstability/depletion parameter (beta) for index of vulnerable biomass be added with OM@cpars$VI_beta with dimensions numeric vector length nsim.
Simulation and year-specific values for observed abundance be added with OM@cpars$Aerr_y with dimensions numeric matrix dim=c(nsim, nyears+proyears).
Reference Points
Simulation specific sampling bias for observed reference points can be as a vector of length OM@nsim with:
OM@cpars$FMSY_MOM@cpars$BMSY_B0OM@cpars$IrefbiasOM@cpars$CrefbiasOM@cpars$BrefbiasOM@cpars$DbiasOM@cpars$hbiasOM@cpars$RecbiasOM@cpars$sigmaRbias
Time-varying sampling bias is not possible at this stage.
