Description

Regniere, J., Powell, J., Bentz, B., and Nealis, V. (2012) Effects of temperature on development, survival and reproduction of insects: experimental design, data analysis and modeling. Journal of Insect Physiology 58(5): 634-47.

Usage

regniere_12

Format

A list of eight elements describing the equation.

eq

The equation (formula object).

eqAlt

The equation (string).

name

The name of the equation.

ref

The equation reference.

refShort

The equation reference shortened.

startVal

The parameters found in the literature with their references.

Details

Equation:

rT = phi * (e^{bb * (T - Tb)} - \frac{Tm - T}{Tm - Tb} * e^{-bb * \frac{T - Tb}{deltab}} - \frac{T - Tb}{Tm - Tb} * e^{\frac{bb * (Tm - Tb) - (Tm - T)}{deltam}})

where rT is the development rate, T the temperature, Tb the minimum temperature, Tm the maximum temperature and phi, bb, deltab, and deltam constants (see source for more details).
