Figure B.1: Occurrence frequencies of formation (top) and resorption (bottom) events at each available compressive strain (minimum principal strain) at endosteal (solid line) and periosteal (dashed line) surfaces in physiologically and additionally loaded limbs in 10 (n = 5), 26 (n = 10), and 78 (n = 9) week old mice. (Re)modeling sites were determined following 15 days of the loading experiment. Plots show mean (line) and standard deviation (shaded area along line).
