delta strategy
Hi,
I am interested in using VAST for a case study on which I am focusing only on positive CPUE values and I would like to know if the DELTA strategy is optional or not with VAST?
Thank you!
It sounds be feasible using ObsModel[2] = 3
instead of ObsModel[2] = 0
, or ObsModel[2] = 4
instead of ObsModel[2] = 1
, and also turning off FieldConfig[1:2] = 0
. These changes to the defaults, respectively, turn off intercepts, and the spatial and spatio-temporal variation in the encounter-probability submodel.
I will try. Thank you for your answer!
