Discussion
- Body temperatures are guessed
- scaled functional response turned out to vary
- mod_1: tW1 data added with known body temperature as function of time
- mod_2: v reduced
- mod_3: 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
