Population Dynamics of Blood Cockle (Tegillarca granosa, Linnaeus, 1758) in the New Coastal Area of Laem Phak Bia, Laem Phak Bia Subdistrict, Ban Laem District, Phetchaburi Province
Abstract
The study on population dynamics of Blood cockle (Tegillarca granosa, Linnaeus, 1758) were estimated using length-frequency data from the new coastal area of Laem Phak Bia, Laem Phak Bia Sub District, Ban Laem District, Phetchaburi province, Thailand during May 2012 to April 2013. Monthly length frequency data of Blood cockle were analyzed by FiSAT_II. Asymptotic length (L∞) and growth co-efficient (K) were 4.99 cm and 0.98 year-1, respectively. The growth performance index (j/) was 1.18. Total mortality (Z) by length-converted catch curve was 4.03 year-1, of which fishing mortality (F) was 0.09 year-1and natural mortality (M) was 3.04 year-1. The exploitation level (E) of Blood cockle was 0.02.
