Growth modelling is a fundamental component of fisheries assessments but is often
hindered by poor quality data from biased sampling. Several methods have attempted to …

The von Bertalanffy growth function (VBGF) with random effects has been widely used to
estimate growth parameters incorporating individual variability of length-at-age. Trajectories …

Accurately forecasting energy production and consumption is a critical challenge due to the
inherent complexities and nonlinear behaviours of energy systems. Traditional grey …

Modeling energy content and gain of individuals is of increasing importance in ecosystem
modeling, especially in aquaculture and fisheries. Traditional models for estimating the …

We propose a probabilistic fish growth model for smart aquaculture systems equipped with
IoT sensors that monitor the ecological environment. As IoT sensors permeate into smart …

As problems such as water pollution and fish species depletion have become serious, a
land-based fish farming is receiving a great attention for ensuring stable productivity. In the …

Individual growth is an important parameter and is linked to a number of other biological
processes. It is commonly modeled using the von Bertalanffy growth function (VBGF), which …

Organisms increase in size over time (age) due to excess assimilation over metabolic
(respiration) energy demands. Most organisms reach a maximum size with increasing age …

The article covers the possibility and necessity of using splines for analyzing the current
dynamics and forecasting stochastic, turbulent and poorly predictable macroeconomic …

The extent of mixing of juveniles is an aspect of southern bluefin tuna (SBT) ecology that
continues to be debated. Juvenile SBT are found either side of the Indian Ocean, south of …
