Growth Potential of Young Black Sea Bass, Centropristis Striata, in Artificial Environments
… of the commercially important marine finfish, black sea bass (Centropristis striata), was examined for aquaculture under controlled conditions. The effect of food and body weight on growth was evaluated using juveniles and young black sea bass cultured with a natural diet and a commercial diet …

Assessing Movement of Fish Through Spectral Analysis of Otolith Life History Scans
… (<em>Micropogonias undulates</em>) and adult black sea bass (<em>Centropristis striata</em>) were sampled using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS).</p> <p>For Atlantic croaker, spectral analyses of the data estimate the timing of ingress at 68 days on …

Population Ecology of Invasive Lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles) in the South Atlantic Bight
… established in the Western Atlantic, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Studies that have documented impacts of lionfish suggest they can reduce fish recruitment and native species biomass by up to 80%. Research on lionfish impacts, biology and ecology is heavily focused in tropical and …

VALIDATION OF AGE AND GROWTH USING MICROCONSTITUENT ANALYSIS OF FISH HARDPARTS
… of annuli are hypothesized to be the result of seasonal changes in organic content and experienced temperature, either of which can result in cycles of trace elements associated with annulus formation. Using Laser Ablation ICP-MS analysis, we tested for periodicity in hardpart Ca, Cu, P, Sr, Mg, …

Investigating the performance of process-observation-error-estimator and robust estimators in surplus production model: a simulation study
… Atlantic weakfish (Cynoscion regalis) and the black sea bass (Centropristis striata) southern stock. Our results indicated that POE_N is the estimator with best performance among all six estimators with regard to both accuracy and precision for most of the cases. POE_N is also the robust …

The impact of bias in length frequency data on an age structured fisheries stock assessment model
… similar to those used in stock assessments for black sea bass (Centropristis striata) and gag (Mycteroperca microlepis) in the southeastern United States, produced erroneous population estimates when given biased data. Length frequency data that contained too many small fish caused stock status …
