Consumption to biomass (Q/B) ratio and estimates of Q/B-predictor parameters for Caribbean fishes

Naga, 2002, vol. 25, issue 2, 19-31

Abstract: Estimates of the Q/B ratio and parameters of equations to 'predict' Q/B values for 116 fish stocks in the Gulf of Salamanca, Colombia are presented. A compilation of these estimates available for Caribbean Sea fishes (264 stocks) is also provided for comparison purposes. General trends in the value of Q/B resulting from differences in the equation and parameter values used are briefly discussed.
