Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 1.8 - 11.9, mean 6.1 °C (based on 287 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.4   ±0.70 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High to very high vulnerability (66 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649):  Moderate to high vulnerability (45 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 17 [8, 32] mg/100g; Iron = 0.355 [0.199, 0.637] mg/100g; Protein = 21 [17, 24] %; Omega3 = 0.636 [0.334, 1.270] g/100g; Selenium = 17.9 [8.9, 35.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 12 [3, 54] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.322 [0.219, 0.489] mg/100g (wet weight);
