This study presents morphological data and estimates of the settling velocity and drag coefficient of sea stars (Asterias rubens) caught in the Limfjord, Denmark. A geometric model describing the sea star is presented and the thickness and arm width are determined as linear functions of arm length. The volume and mass of the sea stars is well predi...
