Variation in length at age was simulated with platoons of different [fish] lengths within each year-class.... Determination of mean lengths at age is an important task in many fishery investigations. Such data are often used to characterize growth and can lead to models of growth with age or studies of density-independent and density-dependent effects of environmental conditions on population structure and dynamics. 3, record 1, English, - mean%20length%2Dat%2Dage

Year-class size of marine fish is thought to be determined during the first year of life, with density-dependent mortality occurring during the larval or juvenile stages. However, investigations of such dynamics are often limited by data availability. To test this paradigm for winter flounder... in [the bay], the abundances of 29 year classes moving through seven life stages were analyzed with a novel extension of key-factor analysis. 2, record 2, English, - year%2Dclass%20size

[An] analysis was conducted to obtain a recruitment index and predict the strength of the 1991 year-class, which is not estimated in the [sequential population analysis]. In this analysis, the mean catch per tow at age by stratum was modeled as a function of the age, year-class, and stratum. An age/stratum interaction term was necessary because the different age groups are not proportionally distributed among strata; the younger fish occupy shallower strata. 1, record 4, English, - age%2Fstratum%20interaction%20term

Dans cette analyse, la capture moyenne par trait de chalut selon l'âge et par strate a été modélisée en fonction de l'âge, la classe d'âge et la strate. Le paramètre d'interaction âge/strate a dû être introduit dans l'analyse parce que les différents groupes d'âge ne sont pas répartis proportionnellement à travers les strates; les plus jeunes poissons sont capturés dans les strates moins profondes. 1, record 4, French, - param%C3%A8tre%20d%27interaction%20%C3%A2ge%2Fstrate

All aquaculture stock must be certified disease free before it enters the marine farming environment. Controlling the spread of disease, disease agents, parasites, toxins or contaminants, within the site or from one site to another is achieved through strict bio-security measures. These include controlled harvesting methods, and developing bay-management systems requiring rotation of sites to allow for fallowing and year-class separation. 2, record 6, English, - aquaculture%20stock

Tous les stocks aquacoles doivent être certifiés exempts de maladie avant d'entrer dans une installation d'élevage marine. Le contrôle de la propagation des maladies, des agents pathologiques, des parasites, des toxines ou des contaminants, à l'intérieur du site ou entre deux sites, est assuré grâce à des mesures de biosécurité rigoureuses. Ces dernières consistent notamment en des méthodes de pêche contrôlées et en l'élaboration de systèmes de gestion des baies nécessitant une rotation des sites pour permettre la mise en jachère et la séparation par classe d'âge. 3, record 6, French, - stock%20aquacole

Lee's phenomenon : Frequently, the larger fish in a year-class have different mortality rates than the smaller ones : either greater or less, but usually greater. This can be detected when back-calculations of length at earlier ages are made from scales or otoliths, using samples that are representative of the whole of each age group involved. When a larger fraction of the larger fish die, the result is "Rosa Lee's phenomenon"... 1, record 7, English, - Lee%27s%20phenomenon
