The mathematics of thermal sub-optimality: Nonlinear regression characterization of thermal performance of reptile metabolic rates

The mathematics of thermal sub-optimality: Nonlinear regression characterization of thermal performance of reptile metabolic rates

Although several approaches have been suggested, there is no broadly accepted single approach for quantitative characterization of thermal performance in ectotherms. I sought to identify the most appropriate non-linear function with which to represent thermal performance of ectothermic metabolic rat...
