Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.4 - 9.4, mean 4.1 °C (based on 3607 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  4.0   ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 1.3 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  Gemiddeld, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 1,4-4,4 jaar (Assuming tmax>3).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (17 of 100).
