Description
Summary:18 página, 2 tablas, 9 figuras Changes in larval buoyancy of captive Arcto-Norwegian cod were observed in relation to developmental stage and maternal influence. In this paper the detailed results of a two-year study on larval buoyancy undertaken on the same individuals, i.e. as recruit (first-time) and repeat (second-time) spawners, are presented. Relevance of buoyancy in terms of vertical and horizontal drift is discussed
