The Journal of Ecology, 1986
(1) Shoots of the dwarf shrub Salix herbacea were collected from three alpine snow-bed sites in northern Sweden. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the importance of shoot age, mean monthly temperature and precipitation in determining annual shoot increment. (2) Shoot age accounted for 39-48% of the within-shoot variation in length of the

Prediction of age at menarche from annual height increments

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1981
AbstractThe divergence in height velocity of early and late maturing girls in early adolescence is exploited to predict menarcheal age from a year's growth in height. Simple prediction equations are generated based on data from the Berkely Guidance Study, and are subsequently tested against an independent sample from the Stuart Growth Study.
