Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

This function fits marginal radius versus thickness with a power function and marginal radius versus mediolateral thickness with a composite function after Eder et al (2018). It extracts the function parameters to consecutively calculate the morphometric character THMR3 based on the power function and MaxMlTh, MRmax and F based on the composite function.

1	EstTF(estMTH, para_hybrid, para_power, print.mod, path_plot, dev_plot)

`estMTH`	input if MlTh should be fitted or only Th; TRUE or FALSE value
`para_hybrid`	vector containing start parameter for the composite function
`para_power`	vector containing start parameter for the power function
`print.mod`	input if the model should be printed; TRUE or FALSE
`path_plot`	path where graphs should be saved; string
`dev_plot`	which extension should be used to save graphs of the exponential function; string - if = NULL then graphs are not saved

the function returns the list TFdf, containing a dataframes with the varaiables MR (marginal radius), Th (Thickness), Mlth (mediolateral thickness) per specimen, and a vector with all specimen codes
