This directory contains data from Etheridge & Roesler (2005), Deep-Sea Research II 52 (2005) 2491-2500. This data was used for the temperature and salinity functions. Data from the Bay of Fundy and Monhegan Island strains were used. The original data (for 4 strains) is in: NE_Isolate_Growth.xls I ended up relying on John Cullen's measurements for the light functionality. The Cullen data is exceptionally well resolved at low light levels. Without this exceptional resolution, estimates of the maintenance growth and, to a lesser extent, alpha, are uncertain.
