On the geoid and orthometric height vs. quasigeoid and normal height [PDF]
Journal of Geodetic Science, 2018 The geoid, but not the quasigeoid, is an equipotential surface in the Earth’s gravity field that can serve both as a geodetic datum and a reference surface in geophysics. It is also a natural zero-level surface, as it agrees with the undisturbed mean sea

The limits of normal approximation for adult height [PDF]
European Journal of Human Genetics, 2021 AbstractAdult height inspired the first biometrical and quantitative genetic studies and is a test-case trait for understanding heritability. The studies of height led to formulation of the classical polygenic model, that has a profound influence on the way we view and analyse complex traits. An essential part of the classical model is an assumption of

ARE HEIGHTS AND HEIGHTS NORMALLY DISTRIBUTED? [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1993 We measured heights and weights of 5056 children, from birth to 18 years of age, in the vicinity served by our hospital. On all children body mass index (BMI) was calculated (Kg/m2). Children younger than 3 years of age were measured in the recumbent position, older children were measured by an upright portable harpenden stadiometer.

Scaling of body composition to height: relevance to height-normalized indexes [PDF]
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2011 Body weight scales to height with a power of ≈2, thus forming the basis of body mass index (weight/height(2)). The corresponding scaling of body composition to height has not been established in a representative sample of US adults.The aim of the study was to examine the scaling of weight, fat, fat-free mass, and bone mineral content to height.Adult ...
