Incorporating effects of age on energy dynamics predicts nonlinear maternal allocation patterns in iteroparous animals

Iteroparous parents face a trade-off between allocating current resources to reproduction versus maximizing survival to produce further offspring. Parental allocation varies across age and follows a hump-shaped pattern across diverse taxa, including mammals, birds and invertebrates. This nonlinear a...
