3D geometric morphometrics of the cold-adapted thorax: eco-geographical variability of the human rib cage

Abstract

Presentación de una comunicación dada en: II Iberian Symposium on geometric morphometrics, celebrado los dias 9 y 10 de junio de 2016 en MadridDespite the importance of the thorax for human biology, its 3D morphological variability associated to eco-geographical variation is poorly understood. Allen´s and bergmann´s eco-geographic rules link body size and shape to climate conditions in homoeothermic mammals.Peer reviewe
