Back-Calculated Fish Lengths and Hg and Zn Levels from Recent and 100-Yr-Old Cleithrum Bones from Atlantic Cod ( Gadus morhua )

Dimensions of cleithrum bones from recently caught Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) were measured and plotted against observed fish lengths to back-calculate cod lengths from cleithra from a ship wrecked in 1865. Mercury levels in the historical bones were approximately the same as those in recent materi...
