Variations in the L and/or Smax can alter CO patterns.

All panels: BF simulations as in Figure 3. Panels (A) and (B) illustrate the effects of variations in L or Smax, respectively. Panels (C) and (D) illustrate the fact that very similar CoC and ED relationships can be achieved by appropriate different combinations of L and Smax, but with a differential response of CoC relationships to changes in L (C) and of ED relationships to changes in Smax (D). These differential responses are further documented in Panels (E) and (F).
