allometry

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.

datasets

Predicts morphological parameters of rorquals (e.g. body mass,
flipper length, maximum engulfment capacity) from body length using
allometric equations from Kahane-Rapport and Goldbogen (2018)
