title: 'MRgrowth: Mark-Recapture Growth Models'
version: 0.1.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.MRgrowth
abstract: 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) <https://doi.org/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.
