Recent developments in the methodology available for the assessment of exploited fish stocks of reservoirs
Type: Book Chapter
Recently developed fish stock assessment methods are briefly presented which could be used for the management of the fish stocks of African reservoirs. These methods include length-structured versions of Virtual Population ...
Indices of overall growth performance of 100 tilapia (Cichlidae) populations
Type: Conference Paper
Four indices for comparing the overall growth performance of fishes ( omega , P, Phi , and Phi ') proposed by various authors are assessed, based on growth parameter estimates in 100 populations of tilapia in 15 species of the ...
The Peruvian anchoveta and its upwelling ecosystem: three decades of change
Type: Working Paper
This volume contains 19 chapters and illustrates very well the many facets of ICLARM's concept of management-oriented fishery research conducted by cooperating institutions and more specifically of ICLARM's multidisciplinary ...
Some definitions of overfishing relevant to coastal zone management in Southeast Asia
Type: Journal Article
This essay is an attempt to define overfishing in terms less technical than those generally used by fishery biologists. It started from the classical definition, then quickly moved on to concepts that may be more relevant ...
A theory of fishing for a two-dimensional world
Type: Journal Article
The concept of a disc-shaped two dimensional imaginary planet called Arde is conceived in which there is up and down, forward and backward but no left and right; and the first elements of a theory of fishing in a two ...
Monsoon induced seasonality in the recruitment of Philippine fishes
Type: Book Chapter
The patterns of recruitment of 112 stocks of Philippine teleost fishes, from 23 families, 34 genera and 57 species, have been studied in detail. The annual recruitment patterns, which were obtained by the backward projection ...
Application to shrimp stocks of objective meathods for the estimation of growth, mortality and recruitment-related parameters from length-frequency data (ELEFAN I and II)
Type: Book Chapter
This paper presents applications to several shrimp stocks of a new, computer-based set of methods for the detailed analysis of length-frequency data. These applications include the objective estimation of growth parameters, ...

Type: Journal Article
Version 1.1 of the Compleat ELEFAN program package of length-based fish stock assessment studies is presented, indicating the differences with version 1.0 and describing minimum hardware requirements.
The relationships between gill surface area and growth performance in fish: a generalization of von Bertalanffy's theory of growth
Type: Journal Article
This paper is an attempt to interpret some of the data on fish growth available in the literature, emphasis is being given to a reassessment of von Bertalanffy's theory of growth as applied to fishes.
