Length-weight relationships of commercially important marine fishes and shellfishes of the southern coast of Karnataka, India
Type: Journal Article
The parameters of the length-weight relationship of the form W = aLb are presented for 51 species of commercially important marine fishes and shellfishes caught along the southern coast of Karnataka, India. Samples from ...
The use of wild-caught juveniles in coastal aquaculture and its application to coral reef fishes
Type: Book Chapter
Worldwide, there are many substantial coastal aquaculture and stock enhancement operations based on collection of wild juveniles. These include: growout of shrimp (Penaeidae), milkfish (Chanos chanos), eels (Anguilla spp.), ...
The accuracy of some length-based methods for fish population studies
Type: Report
Monte-Carlo simulations of fish populations with different biological characteristics were generated to test the accuracy of some recent methods for the assessment of growth in fishes on the basis of length data. ...
Preliminary length-based growth parameter estimates of peruvian sardine (Sardinops Sagax Sagax)
Type: Journal Article
Growth parameter estimates of the Peruvian sardine (Sardinops sagax sagax ) were obtained using the ELEFAN I programme to analyze length-frequency data.
Notes on the assessment of the stocks of small pelagic species on the basis of length frequency analysis and converted catch curves
Type: Journal Article
Difficulties are usually encountered when small pelagic species are to be assessed, using simple classical methods such as the surplus production model. Interannual variations of recruitment and fishing patterns and ...
On the interrelationships between naturual mortality, growth parameters, and mean environmental temperature in 175 fish stocks
Type: Journal Article
A compilation of values for the exponential coefficient of natural mortality (M) is given for 175 different stocks of fish distributed in 84 species, both freshwater and marine, and ranging from polar to tropical waters.
Length-weight relationship of fishes from a seagrass meadow in Negros Oriental, Philippines
Type: Journal Article
The parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship of the form W=aL super(b) were estimated for 13 fish species sampled in a seagrass meadow in Negros Oriental, Philippines. Also, to facilitate conversions, the ...
Consumption to biomass (Q/B) ratio and estimates of Q/B-predictor parameters for Caribbean fishes
Type: Journal Article
Estimates of the Q/B ratio and parameters of equations to 'predict' Q/B values for 116 fish stocks in the Gulf of Salamanca, Colombia are presented. A compilation of these estimates available for Caribbean Sea fishes (264 ...
Growth, mortality and recruitment of Decapterus kurroides in Davao Gulf, Philippines
Type: Journal Article
The ringnet fishery off Davao, southern Philippines, is briefly described. The major species (36%) in the catch is Decapterus kurroides (Pisces, Carangidae), whose growth parameters and mortality rates (natural and fishing) ...
Length-weight relationship of fishes caught by trawl off Alexandria, Egypt
Type: Journal Article
This paper presents the length-weight relationship parameters (a and b) for 29 fish species, belonging to 16 families, taken by otter trawl fishing from Egyptian Mediterranean waters. The b values obtained ranged from 2.50 ...
