Fecundity and egg size of spring spawning Barents Sea capelin

Fecundity of Barents Sea capelin was studied in 1971 and 1972. No differences were found between these two years. The regression line log F = 3.4871 x log L - 0.2049 was fitted to the whole material. This is in good accordance with studies on Barents Sea capelin carried out by others and shows much...
