Fig. 1. Scatterplots of the actual hand-sorted biomass (aHS) and the predicted hand-sorted biomass (pHS) using models developed from original data. Solid lines indicate 1:1 and dotted lines the ordinary least squares (OLS) bisector regression line. Ordinary least squares bisector slope estimates (along with their bootstrapped 95% confidence intervals) were used to validate models.
