Coefficients of the Logistic and von Bertalanffy growth models describing pes length growth of pouch young and post-weaned Tasmanian pademelons (Thylogale billardierii).

Parameter A is the value of the lower asymptote of the pes length growth curve, L0 is the body measurement at birth (age = 0), K is the asymptotic pes length in mm and r is the intrinsic growth rate. Parameter a is the parameter predicting asymptotic pes length and b is the maturation rate. Coefficients of the Brody model describe pes length growth after pouch vacation of pademelons. Parameter B is the mature (or asymptotic) pes length, C is an adjustment parameter when L0≠0 or t≠0, and k is the maturing rate index representing the ratio of maximum growth rate to mature size. For life stage, P indicates a model that describes the pouch life stage, E represents the model that describes the entire life growth and PP represents the model that describes the post-pouch life stage. Goodness of fit is given by r2: r-square value of the regression, and RMSE is the root mean square error. SJ2P is the smooth-joining two phase model.
