Vojta's height conjecture for families of higher-genus curves

Let CB{\mathcal C}\to B be a family of higher-genus curves, let bB(Q)b\in B({\mathbb Q}), and let Cb{\mathcal C}_b be a smooth fiber. Let HBH_B be a non-logarithmic height on BB, and let HCH_{\mathcal C} be a suitable height function on C{\mathcal C}. Vojta's height conjecture. There are constants γ\gamma and κ\kappa such that

HC(P)γHB(b)κH_{\mathcal C}(P)\leq\gamma H_B(b)^\kappa

for all PCb(Q)P\in {\mathcal C}_b({\mathbb Q}). This is presented as a consequence of Vojta's conjecture and gives a uniform polynomial height bound for rational points in smooth fibers; the source does not state a resolution.
