Dear list, I'm trying to fit a chapman-richards equation to my data, only I cannot interpret the parameters a, b and d. I know that the parameter b denotes the asymptote, but for the others I couldn't figure out. But I do need to know this in order to set my starting values. Here's the model:
modPoplar<- nls(Diameter ~ d*(1-exp(-b *Age))^a ,start=list(a=20,b=0.9,d=33)) I attached the graph, too. Hoping for your answers!
