Modelling growth of Antarctic krill: growth trends with sex, length, season, and region
Abstract: Growth trends of Antarctic krill with sex, length, season and region using over 10 ... years accumulation of instantaneous growth rate (IGR) measurements were modelled using a Linear Mixed ... Model (LMM). A model of inter-moult period (IMP) as a function of temperature, required to convert IGR ... this model was used to predict seasonal IMP using a model of the average sea-surface temperature ...
