logistic.solution: Logistic kinetics

Description

Function describing exponential decline from a defined starting value, with an increasing rate constant, supposedly caused by microbial growth

Usage

logistic.solution(t, parent_0, kmax, k0, r)

Value

The value of the response variable at time t.

Arguments

t

Time.

parent_0

Starting value for the response variable at time zero.

kmax

Maximum rate constant.

k0

Minimum rate constant effective at time zero.

r

Growth rate of the increase in the rate constant.
