Summary

This script prepares the RAM B/Bmsy data: 1. Relevant data are collected from the RAM database 2. Missing years are gapfilled when appropriate 3. RAM and Watson species names are harmonized in a few cases 4. RAM stocks are associated with the corresponding OHI and FAO regions

Updates from previous assessment

This year we have additional stocks without spatial information from Christopher Free (2017). We manually assigned ohi and fao region id information to the additional stocks in fao_ohi_rgns.Rmd using best available information on stock distribution and saved the file in int/RAM_fao_ohi_rgns.csv. Watson species names should be similar if not the same as the SAUP species names used prior the 2018 assessment. We are also using management target values for biomass values, which add more RAM species to our analysis.

Gapfill RAM data when there are missing years

For each stock: - Missing years are gapfilled using a linear regression model that includes data from 2001 to 2015 (2015 is the final year of Watson data). To be included in the gapfilling, there have to be 5 or more years of B/Bmsy data occuring over the last 11 years of data, from 2005 to 2015. - We convert any predicted RAM B/Bmsy value less than the minimum observed B/Bmsy value to that the minimum observed value, as there are some negative predicted values.

Summary: - There are 398 RAM stocks with at least 5 years of B/Bmsy data from 2005 to 2015. - 314 of these stocks have at least 1 year of gapfilled data.
- A few of the predicted B/Bmsy values go below zero. We convert anything with a RAM B/Bmsy value < 0.0026 to 0.0026, which is the minimum observed B/Bmsy value in the data.

## gap fill ram_bmsy

Identify FAO and OHI regions for RAM stocks

Identify the FAO/OHI regions where each RAM stock is located (fao and ohi regions are assigned to RAM Data in fao_ohi_rgns.Rmd.

If there are many differences between RAM spatial file and RAM metadata, check the fao_ohi_rgns.Rmd prep again.

## Read in RAM spatial stocks file
ram_spatial <- read.csv("int/RAM_fao_ohi_rgns_final.csv", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

ram_meta <- metadata %>% 
  dplyr::select(stockid, stocklong, scientificname)

setdiff(ram_spatial$stockid, ram_meta$stockid) # make sure all the spatial data has corresponding metadata (should be 0). It is not 0, probably because these are ones that have been removed from the RAM database since the 2017 assessment... delete these from the data frame below. 

# join with metadata to get scientific name
ram_spatial <- ram_spatial %>%
  dplyr::select(-stocklong) %>%
  left_join(ram_meta, by = c("stockid")) %>%
  rename(RAM_species = scientificname) %>%
  filter(!is.na(stocklong)) ## filtering out ones that didn't match above

setdiff(ram_spatial$stockid, ram_meta$stockid) #now it is 0

Standardize species names

In most cases, the RAM and Watson data use the same species names, but there are a few exceptions. The following code identifies species in the RAM data that are not in the Watson data. In these cases, different species names may be used (although not necessarily because some of the species may be present in RAM, but not Watson, for other reasons). For these species, I used fishbase to explore synonyms and create a table to harmonize the RAM species names with the Watson species names (saved as: int/RAM_species_to_Watson.csv).

ram_bmsy_gf_final <- read_csv(file.path("int/ram_stock_bmsy_gf.csv"))

# get list of RAM species, scientific name
ram_sp <- ram_bmsy_gf_final %>%
  left_join(data.frame(metadata), by = "stockid") %>%
  dplyr::select(scientificname) %>%
  unique() %>%
  arrange(scientificname)


# Watson species, sci name (read in the datatable that includes TaxonKey)
wat_sp <- read_csv(file.path(dir_M,'git-annex/globalprep/fis/v2020/int/stock_catch_by_rgn_taxa.csv')) %>% 
  dplyr::rename(wat_scientificname = TaxonName) %>%
  dplyr::select(wat_scientificname) %>%
  unique() %>%
  arrange(wat_scientificname)

# compare names - what's in RAM that's not in Watson
tmp <- data.frame(scientificname = sort(setdiff(ram_sp$scientificname, wat_sp$wat_scientificname))) # 52 species names

# compare names - what's in watson that's not in RAM
tmp2 <- data.frame(scientificname = sort(setdiff(wat_sp$wat_scientificname, ram_sp$scientificname))) # 1210 species names

write.csv(tmp, "int/unmatched_RAM_species.csv", row.names=FALSE)
write.csv(tmp2, "int/Watson_species_no_RAM.csv", row.names=FALSE)

#setdiff(tmp, ram_name_corr$RAM_species)


## join ram spatial with RAM species on scientific name. We can use this to help check whether questionable species names across the ram and watson data match by region and fao id...
ram_sp_fao_ohi <- tmp %>%
  left_join(ram_spatial, by = c("scientificname" = "RAM_species")) %>%
  unique()

write_csv(ram_sp_fao_ohi, "int/new_ram_sp.csv")  

## get watson fao_ohi regions
wat_sp_fao_ohi <- read_csv(file.path(dir_M,'git-annex/globalprep/fis/v2020/int/stock_catch_by_rgn_taxa.csv')) %>% 
  dplyr::rename(wat_scientificname = TaxonName) %>%
   dplyr::filter(year > 1979)

RAM_species_to_Watson <- read.csv("int/RAM_species_to_Watson.csv", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

# Then I hand-looked up each of the missing ones from "unmatched_RAM_species.csv", and added those new ones to "RAM_species_to_Watson.csv" to generate this list - most still unmatched. See "RAM_species_to_watson_notes.csv" for our reasoning behind these changes. 

setdiff(RAM_species_to_Watson$RAM_species,tmp$scientificname) ## these are the new species to add to "RAM_species_to_Watson.csv". For 2020 there is only one new one, just a new spelling of Lepidorgombus spp
