Growth Parameters and Mortality Rates Estimated for Seven Data-Deficient Fishes from the Azores Based on Length-Frequency Data [PDF]
Given the scarcity of information suitable for stock assessments, the growth and mortality of seven exploited marine fishes in Azorean waters were estimated based on length-frequency data. The studied species were Trachurus picturatus, Sparisoma cretense,

Data-Limited Population-Status Evaluation of Two Coastal Fishes in Southern Angola Using Recreational Catch Length-Frequency Data. [PDF]
Excessive truncation of a population's size structure is often identified as an important deleterious effect of exploitation, yet the effect on population persistence of size-structure truncation caused by exploitation is often not quantified due to data

Fitting growth models to length frequency data [PDF]
Abstract A novel two-stage procedure for fitting growth curves to length frequency data collected from commercial fisheries is described. The method is suitable for species in which cohorts are spawned over a limited time period, and samples of length frequency data are collected regularly (e.g.

Catch Trend and Stock Assessment of Hilsa Tenualosa ilisha Using Digital Image Measured Length-Frequency Data [PDF]
Abstract The annual global average catch shares of the anadromous Hilsa Tenualosa ilisha of Bangladesh increased rapidly from 74.5% all through 1984–2013 to 86.7% during the 2010–2015 periods. With a few exceptions, an increasing trend of Hilsa production over the last three decades was found in Bangladesh.

Observational study of missing SOFA score data frequency in RCTs relative to ICU length of stay [PDF]
The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment, also known as SOFA score, was introduced to assess organ dysfunction of critical ill patients. However, understanding the impact of missing SOFA scores in randomized controlled trials and how this affect the ...

TropFishR: an R package for fisheries analysis with length‐frequency data [PDF]
Summary The R package TropFishR is a new analysis toolbox compiling single‐species stock assessment methods specifically designed for data‐limited fisheries analysis using length‐frequency data. It includes methods for (i) estimating biological stock characteristics such as growth and mortality parameters, (ii) exploring technical aspects of the ...

A new approach for estimating stock status from length frequency data [PDF]
AbstractThis study presents a new method (LBB) for the analysis of length frequency data from commercial catches. LBB works for species that grow throughout their lives, such as most commercially-important fish and invertebrates, and requires no input in addition to length frequency data.

Estimation of Age Structure of Fish Populations from Length-Frequency Data [PDF]
A probability model is presented to determine the age structure of a fish population from length-frequency data. It is shown that when the age-length key is available, maximum-likelihood estimates of the age structure can be obtained. When the key is not available, approximate estimates of the age structure can be obtained.
