Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 1 - 7.5, mean 4.7 °C (based on 336 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00499 - 0.02004), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.8   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (K=0.09(?); tm=5.1-8.4; tmax=105; Fec=19,815).
Prior r = 0.09, 95% CL = 0.06 - 0.14, Based on 2 full stock assessments.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High vulnerability (64 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 19 [8, 60] mg/100g; Iron = 0.229 [0.097, 0.540] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [16.7, 19.0] %; Omega3 = 1.23 [0.53, 2.97] g/100g; Selenium = 43.6 [17.2, 124.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 24 [8, 78] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.378 [0.200, 0.665] mg/100g (wet weight);
