The effect of salinity on growth and weight loss of juvenile plaice (Pleuronectes platessa, L): An experimental test (2008)
Journal Article
Augley, J., Huxham, M., Fernandes, T. F., & Lyndon, A. R. (2008). The effect of salinity on growth and weight loss of juvenile plaice (Pleuronectes platessa, L): An experimental test. Journal of Sea Research, 60(4), 292-296. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.seares.2008.05.004

Previous population estimates of the 0+ plaice (Pleuronectes platessa L.) in the Firth of Forth, east central Scotland, did not take account of the Forth estuary west of the Forth bridges. Previous work found plaice in the estuary grew as fast as, or... Read More about The effect of salinity on growth and weight loss of juvenile plaice (Pleuronectes platessa, L): An experimental test.
