Larval growth of hake (Merluccius hubbsi) in the Patagonian shelf: Analysis of two reproductive seasons
The Argentine hake (Merluccius hubbsi) represents the most abundant fish resource in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean. Larval age, daily growth, and temporal distribution of birthdates of individuals collected throughout two reproductive seasons (2004-2005 and 2009) were studied by analyzing daily growt...
