Discussion
- males are supposed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
- Typical body temp in *C (T_typical) was chosen to be 13*C based on ongoing Ciliata mustela experimental temperature preference work by Bass Dye
- am (life span) 0-variate data chosen to be 4 years (1460 days) because Smie1992 found 1 fish at 4 years old. CoheInad1990 said max age 3 years (1065 days)
- Lpm and Lp uses values from CoheInad1990 although other values available from Smie1992 and BadsSain1978
- mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
