Sampling Procedure for Establishing Criteria for Sea Urchin (Loxechinus albus) Proportion under the Legal Minimum Length of landings
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Methodology
- Step 1.
- Requires a statistical procedure that allows assessment of the level of risk of the vessel under evaluation and that provides a less subjective selection criterion. Considering the complexity of this feature, it will be assumed that the vessel has already been selected, and the possibility of a subsequent study focused on this step remains.
- Step 2.
- After selecting the vessel, the number of sea urchin boxes after the landing is to be estimated. This estimate will provide the total of the units to be sampled and will depend on vessel capacity (N).
- Step 3.
- After estimating the number of boxes on the inspected vessel, the following procedure consists of evaluating how many boxes will be studied (n).
- Step 4.
- Once the size of the sample to be evaluated is known, it must be selected. To do so, a systematic sampling plan is carried out during landings and whose procedure is found in Appendix B.
- Step 5.
- Once the value of nhas been obtained and the systematic sampling of the weight of the boxes carried out, the boxes are studied to see if they meet the acceptance criterion.
- Step 6.
- Having calculated the cut-off point by using the ROC curves and having classified boxes as conforming and non-conforming, if the number of the latter exceeded the maximum allowable value, the final procedure consisted of evaluating the tolerance percentage. This was with equation:

Appendix B. Procedure to Select the Containers to Be Evaluated in Sample n, Following Systematic Sampling
- Obtain an ordered list of N elements of the population.
- Determine sample size n.
- Define the size of the systematic jump k given by .
- Choose a random number between one and k (: random start). This number allows obtaining the first sample unit.
- From position , jumping k units will get to the second unit of the sample , and this way jumping from k in k units, the rest of the sample will be formed by units .
- Define the size of the systematic jump: this is calculated by .
- Select a random number between one and 76 (for example, 35).
- Select the remaining elements of the sample, . The latter value was estimated using arithmetic progression:
