A program for constructing length-converted growth curves when growth is seasonal
(1991)Type: Journal ArticleFollowing Sparre's (1990) demonstration that length-converted catch curves overestimate total mortality when growth is seasonal, Pauly (1990) presented a method for constructing length-converted growth curves that allow ... -
