Table 3. True and estimated mixing proportions of nursery-sources in the mixed-stock dataset (p_k).

True and estimated mixing proportions of nursery-sources in the mixed-stock dataset (p_k). Data from all nursery-sources combined for simplicity. True values corresponded to the proportion of bootstrap samples drawn from each cohort and nursery-source at each resampling runs (R = 1,000). These nursery-source proportions were assigned randomly from the vector m = {0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4}.
