Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.7 - 5.4, mean 1.7 °C (based on 287 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00759 (0.00559 - 0.01029), b=3.03 (2.94 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.3   ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 13.7 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Assuming tm>4; tmax=33).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High vulnerability (64 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649):  Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   High.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 20.2 [8.0, 35.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.244 [0.123, 0.466] mg/100g; Protein = 17.2 [15.9, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.375 [0.180, 0.771] g/100g; Selenium = 26.7 [13.1, 59.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 10.3 [2.3, 45.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.281 [0.186, 0.427] mg/100g (wet weight);
