Comparison of Two Length-Based Estimators of Total Mortality: A Simulation Approach

Length-based methods for estimating the total mortality rate, Z, are appealing due to their potential application in data-poor situations, particularly when assessing tropical and invertebrate fisheries where age composition data are lacking. We evaluated two length-based estimators attributed to Be...
