Discussion

  • Mean adult mass 38.4 g (QuilPete2000) is smaller than asymptotic mass of fledling
  • mod_1: 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
