Length-converted catch curves: a powerful tool for fisheries research in the Tropics (part 2)
Type: Journal Article
A method is described for the determination of the selection curve of fishing gear from the shape of the ascending arm of a length-converted catch curve and growth parameters.
Fishery statistics on the microcomputer: a BASIC version of Hasselblad's NORMSTEP program
Type: Journal Article
This paper provides an outline of a mathematical method to analyse overlapping normal distributions. Separations of mixtures of normal distributions is frequently required in fisheries biological analysis, as in the case ...
ICLARM's activities in tropical stock assessment: 1979-1984, and beyond
Type: Journal Article
In March 1977, shortly after ICLARM commenced in Manila, its Program Advisory Committee formulated the guiding principles for the Resource Development and Management Program, which is one of the four program areas of ICLARM ...
On microcomputers vs. thinking and their respective roles in fisheries research in developing countries
Type: Journal Article
A discussion is presented on the topic of microcomputers and fishery research in developing countries, consideringin particular the advantages of the use of computers for data storage and examination as compared to ...
Small-scale fisheries of San Miguel Bay, Philippines: options for management and research
Type: Report
This report synthesizes the respective research findings of the biology, economics and sociology modules of a multidisciplinary study of the small-scale fisheries of San Miguel Bay, Philippines and examines various options ...
Length-based methods in fisheries research
Type: Conference Proceedings
This proceedings include the twenty-two papers which were originally presented in in a conference on The Theory and Application of Length-Based Stock Assessment Methods which took place on 11-16 February 1985 at the Istituto ...
ICLARM's Resource Development and Management Program: the Tropical Stock Assessment Research Project
Type: Journal Article
The project was conceived to identify and overcome the major constraints preventing the development of stock assessment techniques appropriate to tropical stocks. These constraints are listed and the project's programme of ...
Length-converted catch curves: a powerful tool for fisheries research in the Tropics (part 1)
Type: Journal Article
A number of methods are available with the help of which total mortality (Z) can be estimated from length-frequency data. Thus it is possible to obtain reasonable estimates of Z from the mean length in a representative ...
A simple method for estimating the food consumption of fish populations from growth data and food conversion experiments
Type: Journal Article
A multiple-regression extension of the basic model is presented which accounts for the impact of factors other than body weight on values of K1 and p. This method is illustrated with an analysis of data on dab (Limanda limianda).
Length-converted catch curves: a powerful tool for fisheries research in the Tropics (III: conclusion)
Type: Journal Article
A method is described for the determination of the selection curve of fishing gear from the shape of the ascending arm of a length-converted catch curve and growth parameters.
