Population modelling software

Casal2 is an advanced software package developed by NIWA for modelling the population dynamics of marine species.

Casal2 is NIWA’s new integrated assessment tool for modelling population dynamics of marine species, including fishery stock assessments. Casal2 expands functionality and maintainability over its predecessor, CASAL. Casal2 can be used for quantitative assessments of marine populations, including fish, invertebrates, marine mammals and seabirds.
