...Linnea E. Pearson; Emma L. Weitzner; Lars Tomanek; Heather E. M. Liwanag ABSTRACT Allocation of energy to thermoregulation greatly contributes to the metabolic cost of endothermy, especially in extreme ambient conditions. Weddell seal (Leptonychotes weddellii) pups born in Antarctica must survive...

... to cope with cold snaps and diurnal temperature fluctuations. RCH has a well-established role in extending lower lethal limits, but its ability to prevent sublethal cold injury has received less attention. The Antarctic midge, Belgica antarctica , is Antarctica's only endemic insect and has a well-studied...
