• Predictors of Juvenile Survival in Birds (2013, background): “Nestlings’ weight-specific growth can be flexible but generally follows a sigmoid trajectory (Ricklefs 1968, Starck and Ricklefs 1998).”
• Blood parameters as indicators of physiological condition and skeletal development in great tits (Parus major): natural variation and application in the reproductive ecology of birds (2007, background): “Minerals are deposited in the bones more slowly than the bones increase in length, and the calcium content of the body increases until several weeks after fledging (Ricklefs 1975; Austin & Ricklefs 1977; Dutta et al. 1998).”
• Trajectories and models of individual growth (2006, neutral): “Vertebrate data recalculated from (Ricklefs, 1968) and (Case, 1978).”
