WG-CEMP-92/11 More Info	Can we use discriminant function analysis to sex penguins prior to calculating an index of a morphometric parameter? D.J. Agnew (Secretariat) Abstract: In sexually dimorphic species, morphometric parameters have separate distributions for males and females, and these often overlap. Whilst discriminant analysis can be used to determine the sex of individuals, it is only able to correctly sex a certain proportion of birds. Two overlapping normal distributions are used to show that there is a difference between the real mean parameter for a sex Read More Submitted By: Admin Admin (CCAMLR Secretariat) Request Meeting Document
