The analysis of complex behavior of the floating wind turbine system and the fluid-structure interaction is performed in aero-servo-hydro-elastic code ASHES. READ MORE

4. 13. Otolith morphology of sprat (Sprattus sprattus) along the Swedish west coast

   University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

   Author : Francesco Saltalamacchia; [2018]
   Keywords : European sprat; Otolith; shape analysis; wavelet;

   Abstract : The population structure of sprat (Sprattus sprattus) in the Swedish Kattegat – Skagerrak has been at present not well investigated, and the boundaries between the management unit in this region and the larger stock occurring in the North Sea are also highly uncertain, posing issues to the successful management of the stock in this area. In this study, variations in otolith shape among several samples from the Swedish west coast, southern North Sea and Norwegian fjords north of Bergen were studied to investigate the effectiveness of shape analysis for characterise the population structure in the study area, and evaluate whether differences could be used to assign individual fish to their origin.
