An updated spatially explicit population dynamics operating model for Antarctic toothfish in the habitable depths of the Ross Sea region
model for Antarctic toothfish in the Ross Sea region, for a medium scale spatial resolution (189 spatial ... cells) covering the Ross Sea region. We build on the previous working medium-scale model in which the ... habitat for toothfish (120 cells – semi-restricted model).
