Modern Applied Statistics With S

Flatfi shes are very accessible in the wild and hardy in the laboratory, thus many of the early studies of fi sh growth used fl atfi shes, especially plaice (Pleuronectes platessa) in the Atlantic and a number of species in the Pacifi c. As the science of fi sheries developed, so did the need to quantify the population structure and growth characteristics of the different fl atfi sh species. In fact, the importance of ageing fi shes and determining their growth rate was realised early in the last century (Allen 1916). Much of the early information on the aging and growth of fl atfi shes (primarily plaice) is referenced in Wimpenny (1953), Graham (1956) and Beverton & Holt (1957). Prior to the 1950s researchers had gained a fairly good understanding of the methods. A clear pattern of summer and winter growth was recognised in the otoliths, which were fi rst used in the late 1800s. Other bony structures such as opercular bones, the pectoral girdle and the concave faces of the vertebrae exhibited seasonal growth patterns (Cunningham 1905) but these were not as distinctive as those on the otoliths. The observation that a pair of rings may not delimit 1 year’s growth led to early verifi cation studies based on marginal increment analyses. Experimental work on plaice and fl ounder (Platichthys fl esus) showed that the seasonal pattern on both otoliths and scales was primarily driven by seasonal changes in water temperature rather than by variations in food availability. The use of otoliths for age estimation of fl atfi shes was not universal. Species differences slowly became apparent and methodological refi nements followed. Direct measurements of the growth of fl atfi shes were afforded by series of tagging and transplantation experiments, and laboratory or enclosure experiments (Johnstone et al. 1921). In all cases it was apparent that there was considerable variability in individual growth rates and that growth rates varied between areas. The widespread sexual dimorphism in growth with females growing faster and reaching larger sizes than males was also recognised (e.g. Johnstone et al. 1921; Bigelow & Schroeder 1953; Bagenal, 1955). The effects of gear selectivity and ontogenetic behavioural changes of fl atfi shes on the accurate estimation of age structure and growth rates were recognised, especially with the offshore movement of larger juvenile plaice from the nursery grounds and a general offshore movement with size and age. The possibility that fi shing pressure could make major changes to the age structure and growth of commercially exploited fl atfi sh populations was mentioned by Jones (1958), citing the prevalence of Rosa Lee’s phenomenon in plaice.

Computation And Interpretation Of Biological Statistics Of Fish Populations

As the number of fish reproduction studies has proliferated, so has the number of gonadal classification schemes and terms. This has made it difficult for both scientists and resource managers to communicate and for comparisons to be made among studies. We propose the adoption of a simple, universal terminology for the phases in the reproductive cycle, which can be applied to all male and female elasmobranch and teleost fishes. These phases were chosen because they define key milestones in the reproductive cycle; the phases include immature, developing, spawning capable, regressing, and regenerating. Although the temporal sequence of events during gamete development in each phase may vary among species, each phase has specific histological and physiological markers and is conceptually universal. The immature phase can occur only once. The developing phase signals entry into the gonadotropin-dependent stage of oogenesis and spermatogenesis and ultimately results in gonadal growth. The spawning cap...

Procedures to Estimate Fecundity of Wild Collected Marine Fish in Relation to Fish Reproductive Strategy

Reproductive timing can be defined as the temporal pattern of reproduction over a lifetime. Although reproductive timing is highly variable in marine fishes, certain traits are universal, including sexual maturity, undergoing one or more reproductive cycles, participating in one or more spawning events within a reproductive cycle, release of eggs or offspring, aging, and death. These traits commonly occur at four temporal scales: lifetime, annual, intraseasonal, and diel. It has long been known that reproductive timing affects reproductive success, especially in terms of the onset of sexual maturity and the match or mismatch between seasonal spawning and offspring survival. However, a comprehensive understanding of variability in reproductive timing over species, populations, and temporal scales is lacking. In addition, there is a need to assess how variability in reproductive timing affects a population's resilience. Because natural selection occurs at the individual level, this necessitates an ...
