5. Age determination of Antarctic krill using size, fluorescence, and image analysis techniques

   Abstract:  The ages of 252 mature female krill, collected from Prydz Bay in January 1985, were ... determined using length frequency analysis and the fluorescent age pigment (FAP) technique. Results of both ... methods indicate 6 year classes for adult krill. Correspondence between the ages determined by the two ... techniques is generally within one year. The animals were also analyzed by a computerized image analysis ...
