Discussion
- Males are assumed to have the same parameters as females
- Data mostly for Brazil and Uruguay, Uruguay assumed to have a lower food abundance
- tL_br data modeled with a sinusoid temp fluctuation
Facts
- length-AFDW: AFDW in g 10^(-4.074 + 2.458 * log10(length in mm)) (Ref: PetrCard2010)
