Method for Quantifying Degree of Fin Erosion

Abstract An equation was developed for comparing the degree of fin erosion among populations of the same fish species, regardless of fish size, or against a reference population with uneroded fins: fin factor (%) = (fin length x 100)/(total length). This replaces more subjective approaches used in the past for estimating the degree of fin missing.
