The data are best explained by considering the following four experimental groups: 1, both EDTA and NaCl absent; 2, EDTA present and NaCl absent; 3, EDTA absent and NaCl present; 4, both EDTA and NaCl present. LCL and UCL are the lower and upper confidence limits, respectively. Â, b̂, and σ̂2 are the estimates of the stochastic Ricker model parameters.
