Abstract
Thirteen sets of night-day catch ratios for Pacific and Atlantic herring larvae were collected from the literature and used to develop a regression model of the night-day catch ratio. The model explained 75% of the variance in ln(night-day catch ratio) as a function of larval length, the towing speed of the net and mesh width.Keywords
