Shell Lenl'th- Meat Weight Relationships of Ocean Quaho is. Arctica is t.and£.ca. from the Middle Atlantic Shelf
Shell length- drained meat weight relations were calculated from 2,564 ocean quahog ~ Arctica is7.a.ndica., samples taken from the Middle Atlantic shelf during January-February 1978. Significant differences between regression equations were evident among three sub-areas (southem New England-Long Isl...
