Description
To investigate the importance of sex change, growth, and mortality, in setting management strategies, the authors performed simulations using a length-based model. They found that populations with sex change were more sensitive to fishing pressure. They concluded that both sex change and seasonality of growth and mortality of Pandalus populations should be taken into account in shrimp management. ICES Journal of Marine Science 58:607-621.
