Growth and Recruitment of Burbot (Lota lota)
The aim of this study was to detect factors that influence the growth and recruitment of burbot (Lota lota). The recruitment of burbot is generally determined during the pre-juvenile period. The driving forces behind this early determination of the year-class strength are biotic and/or abiotic. The...
