ALLOMETRIC SCALING OF WINGATE ANAEROBIC TESTSCORES IN YOUNG SOCCER PLAYERS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sports Sciences, 2018
In this study, we: (a) developed allometric exponents for scaling Wingate anaerobic test (WAnT) power data that are effective in controlling body mass(BM) influence; and (b) established a normative WAnT data set for young soccer players.

A Hierarchical Allometric Scaling Analysis of Chinese Cities: 1991–2014 [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2017
The law of allometric scaling based on Zipf distributions can be employed to research hierarchies of cities in a geographical region. However, the allometric patterns are easily influenced by random disturbance from the noises in observational data.

Allometric scaling of intraspecific space use [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2016
Allometric scaling relationships enable exploration of animal space-use patterns, yet interspecific studies cannot address many of the underlying mechanisms. We present the first intraspecific study of home range (HR) allometry relative to energetic requirements over several orders of magnitude of body mass, using as a model the ...

Analytic theories of allometric scaling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2011
SummaryDuring the 13 years since it was first advanced, the fractal network theory (FNT), an analytic theory of allometric scaling, has been subjected to a wide range of methodological, mathematical and empirical criticisms, not all of which have been answered satisfactorily. FNT presumes a two-variable power-law relationship between metabolic rate and

Allometric scaling of estuarine ecosystem metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2018
SignificanceCoastal margins host some of the most productive habitats on the planet, yet there is still significant uncertainty about the magnitude of carbon fluxes across the land/ocean interface. Scaling up in situ measurements into whole-ecosystem estimates of how these habitats contribute to global biogeochemical cycling has been hindered by their ...

Allometric scaling of retrogressive thaw slumps [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Interspecies Scaling of Antibody–Drug Conjugates (ADC) for the Prediction of Human Clearance

open access: yesAntibodies, 2021
Allometric scaling is a useful tool for the extrapolation of pharmacokinetic parameters from animals to humans. The objective of this study was to predict human clearance of antibody–drug conjugates (ADC) allometrically from one to three animal species ...

Assessing the Allometric Scaling of Vectorized Branch Lengths of Trees with Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Quantitative Structure Modeling: A Case Study in Guyana

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Allometric scaling is closely related to the morphology, function and behavior of trees, which are of great significance to the study of ecology. However, most of the traditional allometric scaling studies used the scalar attributes of trees, without ...

Allometric scaling of leaf mass based on the pipe model theory for woody plant species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
There is an exceptional case in which Shinozaki’s pipe model predictions should not explain that the allometric scaling exponent between foliage mass and stem diameter at the crown base is bigger than 2 empirically.
