Estimates of some properties based on empirical models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00737 (-0.13739 - 0.15214), b=3.10 (3.01 - 3.18), based on LWR estimates for species & genus-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.45 se; Based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 69278): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (tmax=7).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (51 of 100) .
