Abstract
Initial growth rate for autumn-hatched herring larvae in the Bay of Fundy–Gulf of Maine area is about 2 mm per week. It gradually declines to less than 1 mm per week during the late autumn and winter months, and then increases geometrically in the spring and early summer to an average of 2.5 mm per week.Keywords
