• Step 9: benthos and seafloor habitats
• Step 10: environmental variables
• Step 11: scenarios and simulation settings

Follow the steps

Please have a look at the Wiki page for some help in understanding the parameterisation steps using the R routines. All the R routines are there to generate the various DISPLACE input files (basically a suite of txt files). Most of the routines could also be directly called within the DISPLACE user interface (Parameters>Objects Editor in the main menu). Some raw data, input of these routines, are given as illustration in the public repository DISPLACE_input_gis\testexample so that the routines should be ready to work.

Step 0: DISPLACE graph

Step 1: fish populations

Specification 1: stock numbers and biological traits

Specification 2: spatial layers

Step 2: fish populations

Specification 1: vessel features

Specification 2: spatial layers

Step 3: fishing metiers

Specification 1: gear type selectivity

etc.
