Discussion

  • Body temperature is guessed
  • Energy intake of adult seems to be half the value after 9 wks, which the std model cannot capture
  • 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
