Thermoregulation in the Brown Noddy ( Anous stolidus)

1. 1. Oxygen consumption ( V ̇ O 2 ), body temperature ( T b), respiratory frequency ( f) and total evaporative water loss were measured in Brown Noddies exposed to air temperatures ( T a) between −0.2 and 41.9°C, in a climatic chamber. 2. 2. The thermoneutral zone of T a was approx. 22–37°C and the...
