ICES, 2023

This version of GBRpath is from the 2022 meeting outputs of the ICES Working Group on Multispecies Assessment Methods (WGSAM; ICES, 2023).

Major Changes

• Biomass inputs from MSKeyrun to match the other models in the ICES (2023) report
• Updated to the latest discard, and biomass accumulation data available
• Diet data reflects the modern ecosystem (2019) where the previous version represented 1980-85
• Rebalanced model starting from new data inputs

Minor Changes

• Minor adjustments to species aggregations to match the other models in the report

Full Changelog: v0.1.0...v0.2.0

Weisberg et al., 2026

This version of GBRpath was used in the Weisberg et al. (2026) publication titled "Resilience and efficiency properties differentiate three neighboring food webs of the Northeast US Continental Shelf"

Minor changes from v0.3.0

• Enabled the Zenodo application for this repo in order to generate a DOI for the publication

Weisberg et al, 2026

This version of GBRpath was used in the Weisberg et al. (2026) publication titled "Resilience and efficiency properties differentiate three neighboring food webs of the Northeast US Continental Shelf"

Major changes

• Expanded 'Clams' group into 'OceanQuahog' and 'SurfClam'
• Rebalanced to better align with MAB and GOM models
• Restructured Copepod groups to match SOE work
• Added a data pedigree

Minor changes

• Merged 'OffHake' with 'SilverHake'
• Merged 'OtherFlatfish' with 'OtherDemersals'
• Changed names for marine mammal groups to match MAB model
• Added Biomass Accumulation values found to be statistically significant
• Updated README file with order of scripts to recreate the initial and balanced models

Bug fixes

• Fixed bug which resulted in Little Skates being read as 'NA'

Note

This release was created before the Zenodo application was given access to this repository. V0.3.1 was created to generate a DOI to submit with the manuscript but otherwise is identical to this release.
