Description: Researchers often need to calculate body-size growth rates
        for individuals that do not have associated age data. These
        growth rates are based on mark-recapture data where an
        individual was captured and measured at time 1 then recaptured
        and measured at time 2. The sizes at each time and amount of
        time between captures can be used to calculate growth rates.
        'MRgrowth' follows the approach in Edmonds et al. (2021)
        <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0259978> and provides functions to
        calculate growth using three formulas, the Faben's
        reformulation of the von Bertalanffy formula, the Gompertz
        formula, and a logistic formula.
