The development of larval cod head morphology and aggression and boldness in cod

The report details experiments in 2004 and 2005 that were funded by NERC and Seafish towards a Phd project carried out at the SAMS marine laboratory in Ardtoe. The morphological development of the head in cod larvae and the effect of prey size on the development were studied as well as aggression in cod juveniles and the effects of prey density on aggression. Some of the key results from these experiments are summarized in this report. Each section of the report eventually formed a chapter of the final thesis (through the University of Glasgow).
