For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.711745"! ** All increments counted, none excluded, the sum of all increments gives the age after "first increment formation", NOT specifically hatch date! Note, too, that the last increment was always deleted because presumably its formation couldn't be completed on the day of catch.
