Instantaneous growth rates for two calcified ageing structures.


Description

Instantaneous growth rates (percent change per day) for body growth and two calcified ageing structures from age 1-4 female Northern Pike (Esox lucius) from Wickett Lake, Ontario.

Format

A data frame with 12 observations on the following 4 variables.

day

A numeric vector of days since the beginning of the study.

body

A numeric vector of instantaneous growth rates (percent change per day) for body growth.

cleithrum

A numeric vector of instantaneous growth rates (percent change per day) for cleithra.

scale

A numeric vector of instantaneous growth rates (percent change per day) for scales.
