Fig. 8From: Food-limited growth of larval Atlantic herring Clupea harengus recurrently observed in a coastal nursery areaGeneral additive model (GAM) analyses of larvae <14 mm (N = 820) of a standardized RNA:DNA ratio (sRD) versus Eurytemora abundance (explained variability: 40.9 %) and b sRD versus temperature (explained variability: 24.1 %). GAMs could only be performed for larvae <14 mm, as an autocorrelation between prey and temperature existed for the period when large larvae occurred in the Kiel CanalBack to article page
