Diving Physiology and Energy Requirements of Free Ranging Southern Elephant Seals
Southern elephant seals are among the deepest diving of all marine mammals. This study examined physiological and behavioural mechanisms used by the seals to conserve energy... -
Food consumption and energy expenditure of free ranging southern elephant seals
Elephant seals use a suite of physiological and behavioural mechanisms to maximise the time they can be submerged. Of these hypo-metabolism is one of the most important, so this... -
Effect of spatial and temporal variation in marine productivity on energy...
The demographic performance of high level antarctic predators is ultimately determined by the oceanic processes that influence the spatial and temporal distribution of primary...
