allometry: Allometric equations for rorqual morphology

Description Usage Format Source

Description

A dataset including the intercepts and slopes of the ordinary least squares allometric regression (in log10 space) of various morphometric parameters against body length. Use the formula 10^intercept * length^slope to predict morphology.

Usage
