Gillnet selectivity for North Sea Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ):model ambiguity and data quality are related
Gillnet selectivity curves for North Sea Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) were fitted to catch data obtained with six different mesh sizes. The selectivity curves investigated included frequently used selectivity models following the normal, lognormal, and gamma distributions. Another group of selectivit...
