Description
- Abstract: Growth curves are a crucial component in managing harvested species. Shellfish managers use age and growth data to determine age structure for a given year. The Pacific cockle is a recreationally harvested species and it occurs throughout Yaquina Bay. Accurate age data for the Pacific cockle
can help determine spawning stock biomass and provide an estimate of how many cockles can be harvested in Yaquina Bay.
