A successful population of largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides, in a subtropical lake in Mozambique

Olaf L. F. Weyl, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1999 - 
TL;DR: The success of M. salmoides in Lake Chicamba was attributed to limited inter-specific and intra-specific competition for prey as a consequence of the timing of the spawning, cannibalism and high mortality rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Year-class fluctuations in vendace, Coregonus albula (Linnaeus): Who's got the upper hand in intraspecific competition?

Odd Terje Sandlund, +3 more
- 01 Jun 1991 - 
TL;DR: The vendace Coregonus albula (L.) populations in the lakes Mjosa and Osensjoen exhibited fluctuating year- class strength, indicating that regular year-class oscillations occur as a result of the juvenile survival being negatively correlated to the number of adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and reproduction of eyestalk ablated penaeus canaliculatus (Olivier, 1811) (crustacea:Penaeidae)

Satish Choy
- 27 Oct 1987 - 
TL;DR: In both sexes, ablated individuals became sexually mature earlier; females spawned earlier; Although moulting frequency and the total number of spawns were greater for ablated females, the mean number of eggs produced by unablated females was higher and the mean hatching success was better.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age and growth of an Iberian cyprinodont, Aphanius iberus (Cuv. & Val.), in its most northerly population

Emili García-Berthou, +1 more
- 01 Jun 1992 - 
TL;DR: Age and growth of an Iberian cyprinodont, Aphanius iberus, in its most northerly population, La Rubina lagoon, was studied and the growth model of this species does not seem to fit types I and II of Sebens's classification, which are characteristic of fish.

Unraveling the recruitment problem: A review of environmentally-informed forecasting and management strategy evaluation

Melissa A. Haltuch, +11 more
- 01 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate progress in implementing environmental factors in stock-recruitment projections and management strategy evaluations (MSEs), from the year 2000 through 2017, by reviewing studies that incorporate environmental processes into recruitment forecasting, full-cycle MSEs, or simulations investigating harvest control rules.
