Sentence examples for use of allometric regression from inspiring English sources
A common method to quantify carbon stocks in forests is the use of allometric regression models to convert forest inventory data to estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB).
The allometric component of SShD was computed as the vector of coefficients of allometric regression times the difference of centroid size between males and females.
In the following, we make use of allometric scaling to estimate the number of active stem cells contributing to hematopoiesis in adult mammals from voles to elephants.
A somewhat different use of allometric spaces can be found in a comparative study of allometries in rodents by Wilson and Sánchez-Villagra [ 11].

The influence of body size and maturation on the responses in peak oxygen uptake (VO2) to a 12-week aerobic training and nutritional intervention in obese boys (n = 30; 10 16 years) was examined using multilevel allometric regressions.
In some species, the magnitudes of both components exceeded that of the total SShD (D. melanogaster, D. orena, D. teissieri), but these were among the species where the allometric regressions differed significantly between the sexes, so that this result may be related to poor estimates of a common allometric regression.
Measurements on trees in these plots can be readily converted to aboveground biomass using either biomass expansion factors or allometric regression equations.
To obtain a single allometric regression for each species, we used pooled within-sex regression of shape on centroid size.
However, although the brain of sauropods was often said to be extraordinarily small, it actually falls within the allometric regression for a reptile of this size (Hopson, 1979).
To test the assumption that the allometric regression is the same in both sexes of each species, we conducted bootstrap tests [ 42] with the null hypothesis of a common allometric regression between sexes.
