MY FIRST RESEARCH PROGRAM

IN JANUARY 1977, back at the Institute für Meereskunde at Kiel University, I initiated a research program (and doctorate thesis, again under Professor G. Hempel) consisting of:

1.Developing a computer-based method for estimating growth and derived parameters (total mortality and gear selection) from length-frequency data (which are easy to collect), to replace the subjective pencil-and-paper methods then in use.

2.Understanding the basic drivers of the growth of fish and aquatic invertebrates so that the growth parameters of under-studied species could be inferred.

3.Assembling all published estimates of natural mortality (M) in fish and using them jointly with easy-to-estimate correlates to predict M in any species, anywhere.
