The maximum sustainable yield (MSY) is the highest rate at which a potentially renewable resource can be used indefinitely without reducing its available supply. The idea is to remove individuals while keeping the population at a constant growth rate and size, but to find the size where the harvest is maximized. The greater the growth rate, the more individuals you can remove and not change the population size. Where is the growth rate at its maximum? To find this look at your logistic model simulator. 1. Set up a hypothetical salmon population where the carrying capacity is 20,000 fish, the maximumr is 0.7. According the the maximum sustainable yield (MSY), at what population size should we maintain the salmon while fishing?
