Multivariate methods in aquaculture research: case studies of tilapias in experimental and commercial systems

Abstract

This volume documents the usefulness of multivariate methods – notably multiple regression, path analysis and canonical correlation – in the context of aquaculture, which has to date tended to neglect such methods, and hence to underutilize available data. All examples used here stem from experimental and/or commercial tilapia culture systems, and hence this book also represents an advance in the understanding of such systems
