Table 3.
Proportion of accepted model variants in the filtered ensemble (FE) that incorporated each parameter option, and the relative variance in biomass projections related to each parameter in the unfiltered ensemble (UE). The relative variance describes the variance in biomass projections related to each parameter as a proportion of the variance in biomass projections related to asymptotic length. For parameter choices, see Table S1
