Dear colleagues,
Von Bertalanffy model is commonly adjust to data on fish length (TL) and age (AGE)
TL= Linf*(1-exp(-K*(AGE-t0)). Linf, K and t0 are parameters of the model.
One main goal of the growth study is the comparison of growth parameter estimates
between sexes of the same species, or estimates from different populations.
The realibility statistical tests normally applied are highly dependent on the
nonlinearity of the model used.
Are there any developed routines in R ? to:
1) calculate the maximum intrinsic curvature
2) maximum parameter affecting curvature
3) plot the two dimensional cross sections of confidence regions (for different alpha
values) of the model parameters
Regards,
Ivone Figueiredo
