Energetics of diving in macaroni penguins
Abstract: Heart rate (fH), abdominal temperature (Tab) and diving depth were measured in thirteen ... adjustments that might facilitate the diving behaviour observed in this species. In common with other diving ... birds, macaroni penguins showed significant changes in fH associated with diving, and these variables ... accounted for 36% of the variation in dive duration. When VO2 was calculated for dives of different ...
