Length-weight relationship of marine fish species off Sao Sebastiao system, Sao Paulo, Southeastern Brazil
The parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship of the form W = a . L super(b) were estimated for 57 fish species sampled in Sao Sebastiao Channel and shelf system in 1997, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The b values ranged from 2.746 to 3.617.
