Discussion

  • Lb is given zero weight, since strict isomorphy hardly applies in the very early stages; egg-based wet weight is more reliable for neonate size
  • Ri is given zero weight, since Wwb and LN fitted well, while Ri was over-estimated. This suggests that Ri corresponds to some L less than maximum
  • GSI is given zero weight, since Wwb and LN fitted well, while GSI = 365*Ri*Wwb/Wwi is 2 times the observed value. This suggests that eggs double their weight at spawning by absorbing water
  • tp is given zero weight, because of inconsistency of (tp,Lp) with tL data and (tp,Wwp) with tW data after temperature correction
