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"...
