Pool 4 Length Distributions
Length distributions (length)
as a percentage of catch (percent) for selected species of interest collected
by the Long Term Resource Monitoring Program. Fish species are listed
in phylogenetical order following Robins et al. (1991) nomenclature. In
some instances, meaningful biological interpretation of these distributions
may be limited by small sample size or size selectivity of the gear (Anderson
and Neumann 1996). Some fish histograms with small sample sizes (<100)
are included because of local interest, while others were omitted (reach
dependent). Scientific names for
the species listed can be found in Table 1.
