SRVAL is a FORTRAN IV computer code designed to aid in assessing the validity of curve-fits of the linearized Ricker stock-recruitment model, modified to incorporate multiple-age spawners and to include an environmental variable, to variously processed annual catch-per-unit effort statistics for a fish population. It is sometimes asserted that curve-fits of this kind can be used to determine the sensitivity of fish populations to such man-induced stresses as entrainment and impingement at power plants. The SRVAL code was developed to test such assertions. It was utilized in testimony written in connection with the Hudson River Power Case (US Environmental Protection Agency, Region II). This testimony was recently published as a NUREG report. Here, a user's guide for SRVAL is presented.
