Flexible Bayesian analysis of the von Bertalanffy growth function with the use of a log-skew-t distribution
(2017)
The von Bertalanffy growth function is the model most widely applied to describe growth in fish populations. Parameters describing this function usually are estimated from observed lengths at different ages by using maximum ...
