Input data and code supporting the cod_v2 population estimates

The model.zip file contains input data and code supporting the cod_v2 population estimates. The file modelData.RData provides the input data to the JAGS model and the file modelCode.R contains the source code for the model in the JAGS language. The files can be used to run the model for further assessments and as a starting point for further model development. The data and the model were developed using the statistical software R version 4.0.2 (https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/4.0.2) and JAGS 4.3.0 (https://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.io), a program for analysis of Bayesian graphical models using Gibbs sampling, through the R package runjags 2.2.0 (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/runjags).
