Discussion

  • Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
  • In view of low somatic maintenance, pseudodata k_J = 0.002 1/d is replaced by pseudodata k = 0.3
  • mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females

Facts

  • temperature effects sex of neonate: below 31C neonates are male, above 32C they are female (Ref: Wiki)
