Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, growth model
Implementation of the model developed by Kobayashi et al., (1997). The model was setted to individual growth.
Reproduction and effects of TPM on filtration rate (FR) were not included. [yellow variables]
The values of Chlorophyll, Salinity and Water Temperature are from Mondol et al., (2016).
The growth follows a similar trend of that reported by Modol et al., (2016) but the wet weight tissue values are 3 times higher that the expected.
