Growth and Ecology of Fish Poulations

Description:

An influential early synthesis of fish growth biology and population ecology. Examines the physiological and environmental factors affecting growth in fishes, including temperature, food availability and metabolism, and their relationships with population regulation, competition, predation, reproduction and fisheries productivity. A pioneering work in placing individual growth at the centre of fish population ecology. Awarded the Wildlife Society's 1972 publications award, the book became a widely cited reference.
