Discussion

  • The data are from ambient temperatures which depend on the season. We use a standard temp of 15 deg C
  • Males and females assumed to differ by {p_Am} only.
  • mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females

Facts

  • The sex of each mature individual was determined according to sexual dimorphism reported for this species: males have a fleshy protuberance at the base of the tail,whereas females have a prominent cloaca but without the protuberance (Ref: FaraShar2016)
