Energetics of diving in macaroni penguins.
Heart rate (fH), abdominal temperature (T(ab)) and diving depth were measured in thirteen free-ranging breeding female macaroni penguins. Measurement of these variables allowed estimation of the mass-specific rate of oxygen consumption (V(O(2))) while diving and investigation of the physiological adjustments that might facilitate the diving behaviour observed in this species. In common with oth...
متن کاملDiving energetics in king penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus).
Dive duration in wild king penguins and the energetic cost of swimming in a 30m long swim channel were determined at Ile de la Possession, Crozet Archipelago, using external data loggers and respirometry, respectively. Calibrated electronic data loggers equipped with a pressure sensor were used to determine dive durations: 95% of dives were less than 6 min long and 66% of dives were less than 4...
متن کاملCorticosterone predicts foraging behavior and parental care in macaroni penguins.
Corticosterone has received considerable attention as the principal hormonal mediator of allostasis or physiological stress in wild animals. More recently, it has also been implicated in the regulation of parental care in breeding birds, particularly with respect to individual variation in foraging behavior and provisioning effort. There is also evidence that prolactin can work either inversely...
متن کاملO2 store management in diving emperor penguins.
In order to further define O(2) store utilization during dives and understand the physiological basis of the aerobic dive limit (ADL, dive duration associated with the onset of post-dive blood lactate accumulation), emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri) were equipped with either a blood partial pressure of oxygen (P(O(2))) recorder or a blood sampler while they were diving at an isolated dive...
متن کاملFine-scale analyses of diving energetics in king penguins Aptenodytes patagonicus: how behaviour affects costs of a foraging dive
Heart rate data loggers were implanted into king penguins Aptenodytes patagonicus undertaking foraging trips at sea during three austral summers. Data were obtained from a total of 20 king penguins. Our aim was to investigate variations in mean heart rate over the dive cycle (i.e. dive plus the subsequent surface period) with changes in diving behaviour, at the scale of the individual foraging ...
