Pool 8 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.
