Length-weight regression coefficients for American shad

Description

A dataset containing sex-specific regression coefficients of log10length-log10weight relationships for each life-history region (NI = Northern iteroparous, SI = Southern iteroparous, SP = Semelparous). Use to predict weight at age from length derived using region-specific von Bertalanffy growth parameters in built-in datasets.
