Self‐shading affects allometric scaling in trees [PDF]
Functional Ecology, 2010 Summary1. Westet al.[Science,284(1999) 1677] derived an optimal body‐size scaling exponent under the assumption that resources are evenly distributed among exchange surfaces, leading to the well‐known ¾ scaling rule. In trees, this implies a volume‐filling branching network (a fractal dimension of 3 for foliage).

Allometric scaling of biological rhythms in mammals [PDF]
Biological Research, 2005 A wide spectrum of cyclic functions in terrestrial mammals of different size, from the 3-gram shrew to the 3-ton elephant, yields an allometric exponent around 0.25, which is correlated _ as a kind of common denominator _ with the specific metabolic rate.

Problems of allometric scaling analysis
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2005 Biological scaling analyses employing the widely used bivariate allometric model are beset by at least four interacting problems: (1) choice of an appropriate best-fit line with due attention to the influence of outliers; (2) objective recognition of divergent subsets in the data (allometric grades); (3) potential restrictions on statistical ...

Allometric scaling: Theory and Applications
Functional Foods in Health and Disease, 2017 Background: The history and bases for selectedallometric energy relationships are reviewed in this article, specifically those related to quarter-power scaling as described by M. Kleiber, i.e. interspecies metabolic rates scaleas a function of mass to the three-quarters power (metabolic body size).

Allometric scaling of retrogressive thaw slumps [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 In the warming Arctic, retrogressive thaw slumping (RTS) has emerged as the primary thermokarst modifier of ice-rich permafrost slopes, raising urgency to investigate the distribution and intensification of disturbances and the cascade of effects ...
