Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7.5 - 21.7, mean 13.2 °C (based on 137 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00892 - 0.01288), b=3.07 (3.02 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 3.3 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (22 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 95.1 [33.5, 203.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.949 [0.468, 1.873] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.0, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 0.461 [0.256, 0.823] g/100g; Selenium = 27.1 [13.2, 56.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 29.1 [8.4, 112.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.908 [0.605, 1.386] mg/100g (wet weight);
