鱼类体长与体重关系中的分形特征
FRACTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF LENGTH-WEIGHT RELATIONSHIP IN FISH

摘要: 运用分形理论得到了描述鱼类形态的基本关系式,既扩展了传统上对鱼类形状描述的思路,又回答了鱼类体长-体重关系式W=bLa在实际运用中长期存在的量纲不和谐问题。还对体长-体重函数关系的普适性、参数a和鱼类生长发育过程的阶段性、鱼类肥满度定义等进行了分析和讨论。Abstract: In the study of measurable or numerical properties of fish bodies, statisticalmethods are usually employed to establish equations of the correlation among theproperties. For example, the body length (L)-weight (W) relationship has generallybeen described as W=bLα,W= aL+b, W=b1 + b2L+ b3L2, W= beαL or W= beαL,in various literatures. However, only a few authors have defined the biologicalsignificance of the parameters in these equations, but no one has ever considered howto resolve the problem of dimension disharmony when the weight is expressed inrelation to the length. In fact the significant"correlation" may be found statisticallyeven if there is no biological relationship between any two physical measures. But ageneralized applicable expression must be established when the biological significanceand dimension harmony of statistical parameters is considered. In the present paper,the mass of fish body is assumed as being fractally distributed, the length-weightrelationship of fish can be described as W= ρkL3m/D on the basis of the fractalrelationship between surface area and volume in irregular bodies, where and m areconstants, D is the fractal dimension, and k is a factor including D. If b =ρk and α = 3m/D, W= ρkL3m/D can be recorded as W= bLα. It is shown that there areproblems of dimension disharmony in the statistical relationship between the bodylength and weight in fish except the equation W= bLα, and that if the mass of fishbody is a constant the fractal dimension D in the expression W= ρkL3m/D representsthe degree of uniform in the growth speed between length and weight of fish.Moreover, calculations of parameter a within different body length intervals revealedthat from juvenile to senility, the ratio of fish growth between length and weight isinitially varied, then uniformed, and finally back to varied.
