Discussion

  • Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
  • Temperature in C for tL data varies with time in d as T(t)=20+15*sin(2*pi*(t+10)/365)

Facts

  • width-length: length in mm = 2.33 * (width in mm) - 0.44 (Ref: McLaSieb1991)
  • width-weight: log10(ash-free dry weight in g) = 2.55 * log10(width in mm) - 3.45 (Ref: McLaSieb1991)
