      Heino, Mikko; Baulier, Loïc; Boukal, David S.; Dunlop, Erin S.; Eliassen, Sigrunn; Enberg, Katja; Jørgensen, Christian; Varpe, Øystein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008-06-22)
      Fishing is often size selective such that the likelihood of capture increases with body size. It has therefore been postulated that fishing could favour evolution of slower growth because smaller size would reduce exposure ...
    • Life-history implications of the allometric scaling of growth 

      Boukal, David S.; Dieckmann, Ulf; Enberg, Katja; Heino, Mikko; Jørgensen, Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-05-27)
      Several phenomenological descriptions, such as the von Bertalanffy growth model, have been widely used to describe size-at-age and individual growth across a diverse range of organisms. However, for modelling life histories, ...
