Discussion

  • Several data are very speculative, such as T, Wwb, Ri
  • Neonate growth is possibly retarted by lower body temperature
  • In view of low somatic maintenance, pseudodata k_J = 0.002 1/d is replaced by pseudodata k = 0.3
  • mod_2: w_R is used to reduce degrees of freedom and estimate Ri

Facts

  • Extinct, lived 68 till 66 Ma ago (Ref: Wiki)
