| Abstract |
Linear and polynomial day degree models are shown to be capable of predicting oyster growth in terms of height or weight. Polynomial models predict growth more accurately than linear models, but are less meaningful biologically. A general linear model for predicting oyster growth in terms of weight is developed for the North Inlet, South Carolina area. |
