Abstract
Random effects model estimates of annual standardised somatic growth for male rock lobsters by super-area (Areas 8–14, 7 and 3–6) are presented in this paper. The “less data” selection has been used for these analyses. Given scant indication of significant differences in trend with year between the three super-areas, it is recommended that spatially disaggregated assessments be based upon a common trend in somatic growth with year estimated from analyses of data for all three super-areas combined.
