Timing of Increment Formation in Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (<i>Thunnus thynnus</i>) Otoliths

Timing of Increment Formation in Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (<i>Thunnus thynnus</i>) Otoliths

Controversies remain regarding the periodicity, or seasonality, of otolith growth band formation, which directly influences a correct age determination of Atlantic bluefin tuna using this structure. The aim of this work was to apply marginal increment analysis and marginal edge analysis to determine...
