Grantham Supervisor Dylan Childs has co-authored a paper, ‘Using an integral projection model to assess the effect of temperature on the growth of gilthead seabream Sparus’.
Dylan, a population biologist, explains the importance of the paper:
We investigated how increasing summer temperatures affect the growth of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). Our analysis indicates that warming will have a significant impact on S. aurata size-at-age, with important implications for stock assessment and management of this commercially important species.
