Fit Growth Curves to Fish Data

Fit growth models to otoliths and/or tagging data, using the 'RTMB' package and maximum likelihood. The otoliths (or similar measurements of age) provide direct observed coordinates of age and length. The tagging data provide information about the observed length at release and length at recapture at a later time, where the age at release is unknown and estimated as a vector of parameters. The growth models provided by this package can be fitted to otoliths only, tagging data only, or a combination of the two. Growth variability can be modelled as constant or increasing with length.
