Discussion

  • males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
  • neonates are longer for their weight than adults, so the shape coefficient is assumed to change linear in length till puberty
  • mod_3: reconstructed tL and tW data, male/female, change in shape, different tp, Lp, am
  • mod_4: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
  • mod_5: tLe data added
