Stability of water masses‐impact on cod recruitment off West Greenland
ABSTRACT Based upon the hypothesis of Meyer (1968: Hansa, 16:2–4) that periods of low stability of the water column in autumn should parallel good cod year‐classes in the following year, the paper analyzes available time series of cod recruitment, subsurface oceanographic stability data and wind str...
