Estimates based on models
|
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5044 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.00447 (0.00375 - 0.00532), b=3.15 (3.10 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.9 ±0.68 se; based on food items. |
| Generation time | 15.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tm=2-3). |
| Rate of population increase | Prior r = 0.51, 95% CL = 0.33 - 0.76, Based on 2 data-limited stock assessments. |
