Discussion
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
- Temperatures are guessed
- Since yr class in tL and tW data was indicated by 0+, and this cohort had high LJFL and weight, 1.25 yr was added for time since birth
- mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
