Length-Weight Relationships for Eight Caught Marine Fish Using Midwater Trawler in Chabahar Fishing Grounds, Sistan and Bluchestan (The Sea of Oman)

Abstract

Length-weight relationships are fundamental information to understanding the biological parameters of fishes for fisheries management, fish stock assessment, determination of biomass using measured weights, comparison of life cycle characteristic of fish populations from different regions, and estimation of weight ranges from length ranges [1-4]. This research prepares length-weight relationships for eight fish species in Chabahr fishing grounds located in the Sea of Oman.
