Changes in the Cohort Growth Rate of Flemish Cap Cod

G. Pérez-Gándaras,Javier Zamarro-1990-01-01-DIGITAL.CSIC (Spanish National Research Council (CSIC))

TL;DRAbstract

The cohort growth rate of the Flemish Cap cod was studied, using data from Canadian research surveys in the period 1977 -1985, fishing data from the Spanish commercial catches between 1986 and 1987, and data from a research survey carried out by Spain in 1988.We notice that cod growth is linear during the first years of its life.This period may last from five to eleven years in The sizes of first maturity of females from 1978 to 1985 vary following the size trends of individuals at the age of four.Thus, we suppose that this must be the minimum age at which ovarian maturation in cod takes place.
