  abstract = {{I}n order to describe a simple method of estimating maximum sustainable yield ({MSY}), we first demonstrate that the parameters of the two well-known surplus production models of {S}chaefer and {F}ox can be expressed in terms of fishing mortality that yields maximum sustainable yield ({FMSY}), annual yield and mean biomass. {I}f {FMSY} is known, or alternatively, is assumed to be some specified function of a known natural mortality rate, it thereby becomes possible to estimate {MSY} and describe the surplus production function even when the data are limited to one year of estimates for catch and mean biomass. {T}he method is compared to other simple methods for estimating {MSY} and its potential application is discussed.
