Otolith microstructure of three larval gadids in the Gulf of Maine, with inferences on early life history
A detailed analysis of the assumptions underlying the application of otolith microstructure was undertaken for three gadid species from the Gulf of Maine. Daily increment counts provided a precise and accurate index of age in cod (Gadus morhua) and appeared to do so in haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefi...
