Type 3 test of fixed effects for linear regression models for size-at age of individual anadromous male and female whitefish in relation to months spent at sea in the two time periods (year classes 1996–2002; 2003–2009) in the GoB. Mature and immature whitefish spent 25–72 months at sea (3–6 years) were included.
