Scaling in Free-Swimming Fish and Implications for Measuring Size-at-Time in the Wild.

This study was motivated by the need to measure size-at-age, and thus growth rate, in fish in the wild. We postulated that this could be achieved using accelerometer tags based first on early isometric scaling models that hypothesize that similar animals should move at the same speed with a stroke f...
