Discussion

  • Males are assumed to have the same parameters as females
  • Data mostly for Brazil and Uruguay, Uruguay assumed to have a lower food abundance
  • tL_br data modeled with a sinusoid temp fluctuation

Facts

  • length-AFDW: AFDW in g 10^(-4.074 + 2.458 * log10(length in mm)) (Ref: PetrCard2010)
