Details

All the models describe the evolution of the square root of the maximum specific growth rate (sqrtmumax) as a function of one or more environmental factors among temperature (T), pH (pH) and water activity (aw). Each model must be fitted to a data frame including at least two columns, the last one named "sqrtmumax" and the first ones named "T", "pH" or "aw" according to the model.

cpm_T is the cardinal temperature model with inflection (Rosso et al., 1993) with four parameters (Tmin, Topt, Tmax,muopt)

cpm_pH_4p is the cardinal pH model (Rosso et al., 1995) with four parameters (pHmin, pHopt, pHmax, muopt)

cpm_pH_3p is a symetric cardinal pH model with three parameters (pHmin, pHopt, muopt), obtained by fixing pHmax to 2pHopt-pHmin in the cpm_pH_4p model

cpm_aw_3p is the cardinal aw model (Rosso and Robinson, 2001) with three parameters (awmin, awopt, muopt)

cpm_aw_2p is a simplified cardinal aw model (Rosso and Robinson, 2001) with two parameters (awmin, muopt) obtained by fixing awopt to 1 in the cpm_aw_3p model

cpm_T_pH_aw is the cardinal model based on the gamma concept (Pinon et al., 2004) with 9 parameters (Tmin, Topt, Tmax, pHmin, pHopt, pHmax, awmin, awopt, muopt)
