The present project developed models and tested management options for PAU 3A as the pāua fishery rebuilds following the Kaikōura earthquake. The modelling focused on key uncertainties, including earthquake impacts and recovery, and the developments of recreational catch over time. Depending on the model-fitting strategy and earthquake impacts, tested commercial harvest strategies, combined with recreational harvest scenarios, led to relatively stable, or declining fisheries.
