Linking the maximum reported life span to the aging rate in wild birds
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5682-5689, May 2021., 2021 We explicitly linked the maximum reported life span to the aging process by employing a Weibull distribution and calculating the shape parameter in the model for 246 bird species based on published information from EURING. Abstract Dozens of surrogates have been used to reflect the rate of aging in comparative biology.
