-Description: Implements Generalized Linear Mixed Effect Models (GLMMs) using
-    'TMB' to estimate ageing error from double reads of otoliths. The original
-    analysis (Punt et al. 2008; <doi:10.1139/F08-111>) was written in `ADMB`
-    and focused on estimating imprecision and bias. The newer version of the
-    software allows for random effects using `TMB`.
