Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.2 - 6.5, mean 4.6 °C (based on 172 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00609 - 0.01190), b=3.01 (2.92 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (tmax=23; K=.06-0.09; tm=5-7; Fec=250,000).

Prior r = 0.19, 95% CL = 0.12 - 0.28, Based on 7 full stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (54 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): Moderate to high vulnerability (45 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 16.9 [6.7, 30.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.31 [0.12, 0.66] mg/100g; Protein = 16.5 [15.1, 17.9] %; Omega3 = 0.196 [0.091, 0.414] g/100g; Selenium = 22.5 [9.2, 55.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 9.89 [1.80, 56.48] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.252 [0.158, 0.394] mg/100g (wet weight);
