Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 0.6 - 8.5, mean 2.6 °C (based on 572 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00813 (0.00446 - 0.01481), b=3.18 (3.01 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.7   ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Generation time: 4.2 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Moderate vulnerability (45 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Very high . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 41.2 [6.4, 105.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.155 [0.048, 0.466] mg/100g; Protein = 19.7 [16.8, 22.0] %; Omega3 = 0.349 [0.144, 1.013] g/100g; Selenium = 9.39 [3.79, 23.61] μg/100g; VitaminA = 39.5 [10.9, 145.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.916 [0.357, 1.861] mg/100g (wet weight);
