Figure 2a.— Example showing component distributions 

 for one length-frequency sample (month of November of 

 the same simulation represented in Figure la) for situa- 

 tion 1. Age class 4 is not represented due to low fre- 

 quencies. 



Figure 2b.— Example showing component distributions 

 for one length-frequency sample (month of November of 

 the same simulation represented in Figure lb) for situa- 

 tion 2. Age class 6 is not represented due to low fre- 

 quencies. 



Figure 2c.— Example showing component distributions for 

 one length-frequency sample (month of November of the 

 same simulation represented in Figure Ic) for situation 

 3. There are two cohorts contributing to each age class. 

 Ages 5 and 6 are not represented due to low frequencies. 



Figure 2d.— Example showing component distributions 

 for one length-frequency sample (month of November of 

 the same simulation represented in Figure Id) for situa- 

 tion 4. In this case there are multiple cohorts contributing 

 to each age class. Age classes 1 and 6 are not represented 

 due to low frequencies.
