Bioenergetics of O+ Atlantic Herring (Clupea harengus harengus)

Abstract
On the basis of the limited published information on herring bioenergetics, together with general considerations from other species, we propose a preliminary bioenergetic model for Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus harengus). Application of the model to published data for five larval cohorts from each of two years shows that temperature and body size interact with the apparent availability of suitable prey to result in quite different metabolic environments that support relatively uniform growth.
