MET_ecto

Description

R version of Fortran MET.f (ectotherm model) for computing metabolic heat production using an allometric function.

Usage

MET_ecto(
  AMASS = 0.04,
  XTRY = 25,
  M_1 = 0.013,
  M_2 = 0.8,

  M_4 = 0,
  Q_ACT = 0
)

Arguments

body mass, kg

XTRY

current guess of core body temperature (°C)

M_1

metabolic rate parameter 1 V_O2=M_1*M^M_2*10^(M_3*Tb)*10^M_4, in ml O2 / h, default parameters for lizards

M_2

metabolic rate parameter 2

M_3
