Survival and growth curve analyses applied to a barnacle data set

A data set relating to the survival and growth of barnacles is examined. Survival distributions are compared by means of three nonparametric tests. The exponential model is then fitted for the survival distributions and a random effects model is developed for the slope. Polynomial growth curves are...
