Discussion

  • Peak weight before fledging is only 75% of adult weight, which causes poor fit of tW data if f is assumed to be constant
  • mod_1: v is reduced
  • mod_2: Pseudo-data point k is used, rather than k_J; Data set tp and parameter t_R are added, the latter replacing clutch interval t_N. Postnatal T is based on PrinPres1991, see get_T_Aves. See further the revision page, theme puberty
