Interannual variations of recruitment and fishing patterns and consequences for the use of analytical methods are discussed, considering in particular length-frequency distribution and use in fish stock assessment.application/pdfCC BY 4.0Notes on the assessment of the stocks of small pelagic species on the basis of length frequency analysis and converted catch curvesJournal Article
