The purpose of this dataset was to compile adult and offspring size estimates for marine organisms. Adult and offspring size estimates of 408 species were compiled from the literature covering >17 orders of magnitude in body mass and including Cephalopoda (ink fish), Cnidaria ("jelly" fish), Crustaceans, Ctenophora (comb jellies), Elasmobranchii (cartilaginous fish), Mammalia (mammals), Sagittoidea (arrow worms) and Teleost (i.e., Actinopterygii, bony fish). Individual size estimates were converted to standardized size estimates (carbon weight, g) to allow for among-group comparisons. This required a number of size estimates to be converted and a compilation of conversion factors obtained from the literature are also presented.
本数据集的目的是编译海洋生物的成体和幼体大小估计值。从文献中编译了 408 种物种的成体和幼体大小估计值，涵盖了超过 17 个质量级别的生物，包括头足类动物（墨鱼）、刺胞动物（水母）、甲壳类动物、栉水母类（栉水母）、软骨鱼纲（软骨鱼）、哺乳动物、箭虫纲（箭虫）和硬骨鱼纲（即硬骨鱼）。个体大小估计值被转换为标准化的大小估计值（碳重量，g），以允许进行组间比较。这需要转换许多大小估计值，并从文献中汇编了转换因子。
