Direct and indirect estimates of natural mortality for the patagonian scallop zygochlamys patagonica

The adequacy of empirical estimates of natural mortality (M) for the Patagonian scallop Zygochlamys patagonica (King & Broderip, 1832) is assessed against a direct estimate based on catch-at-ago data obtained from fishery research surveys and auxiliary information on fishing effort exerted by th...
