The value of conditional prediction: Can retained species help predict unknown discards in commercial fisheries?

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 6, Page 1392-1405, June 2025.
Due to their higher performance and reliability, we consider SSDMs valuable for modelling unobserved discards and advise caution when using conditional joint prediction for continuous response variables such as biomass, especially when overdispersion is likely.
