Dear BUGS Group,
I'm currently fitting logistic curves to some growth rate data; however,
the time series are censored such that not all the time series reach a
carrying capacity. I have data on what the carrying capacities might be
(or at least a maximum) for each individual. I have two questions:
1. Are there any sensible parameterisations of a logistic growth
function? I'm particularly interested in how to model the carrying
capacity as a mixed effect.
2. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can use the data for the
(hypothesised) 'maximum' carrying capacities in the prior?
TIA
Simon
