Age of Sea Snails?
Description
Subset of data from a study on sea snails of the
genus Haliotis. The age of a such a snail (in years) is quite
close to the number of rings it has on its shell plus 1.5. The idea
is to predict the age of an individual sea snail from other
characteristics. The rest of the data is witheld for evalution
purposes.
Format
A data frame with 2923 observations on the following 9 variables.
- Type
male, femal or infant
- LongSh
length of longest shell
- Diam
diameter
- Height
height
- WhWt
weight when whole
- ShuckWt
weight when shucked
- ViscWt
weight of the snail's viscera
- ShellWt
weight of the snails's shell
- Age
number of rings, plus 1.5
Details
From the ICU website: "The age of abalone is determined by
cutting the shell through the cone, staining it, and counting the number of
rings through a microscope – a boring and time-consuming task.
Other measurements, which are easier to obtain, are used to predict the age."
