Investigation of the Relationship between Body Length and Live Weight of the Pikeperch (Sander Lucioperca Linnaeus, 1758) in Beyşehir Lake Population

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the total length and standard lengths with live weight of the freshwater pikeperch growing in the Beyşehir Lake population using four mathematical models. 50 female fish materials of marketable size limit age were used. The data obtained were divided into two groups: estimation (70%) and test (30%). The applied models are exponential decay, exponential and Wood models, and in such research generally preferred power model. R2, R2adj, RMSE, AIC, BIC and MAPE values were used as goodness of fit tests and comparison criteria of the models. According to the study results, the total length gives more accurate estimates than a standard length in the estimating live weight. As a result, it was concluded that other models might provide better results than the power model, and they were suggested to be used in estimating the live weight of pikeperch fish.
