Abstract Analysis of sets of intra-species and inter-species allometric relationships reveals that the inter-species data generally fit an exponential model better than a linear model. The intra-species data seem equally suited to either model. Skewness of the data and the effect of logarithmic transformations on correlation coefficients are examined

International Journal of Modern Physics B, 2012
There are a substantial number of empirical relations that began with the identification of a pattern in data; were shown to have a terse power-law description; were interpreted using existing theory; reached the level of "law" and given a name; only to be subsequently fade away when it proved impossible to connect the "law" with a larger body of ...

Growth, development, and aging : GDA, 1993
A multiphasic linear model is presented that describes the allometric relation between body components and permits a smooth transition from one linear segment to the next. Three applications of a diphasic linear model to allometric growth problems were used to illustrate the model.

Evolutionary Ecology, 1998
Many life-history parameters have condition-dependent optima, but individuals are often required to set the values of such parameters relatively early in development, before the relevant conditions can be assessed with full accuracy. If cues are available that predict such future conditions, then the condition-dependent parameter should evolve to ...

Similarity, allometry and food chains
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1969So many different species are involved in environmental pollution problems that there is a need for general principles adequate to predict uptake and retention rates for large classes of organisms. With “metabolic body size” (weight to the three-fourths power) as a scaling-variable, the ratio of retention times in pairs of mammalian species is shown to

Forest Science, 1998
Abstract A theory of multivariate allometry is developed. Bivariate and multivariate allometry are then shown to be compatible, the defining differential equations being analogs of each other and invariant under analogous allometric transforms. The relevance of allometric equations to growth modeling is examined.
