Environment, Migratory Tendency, Phylogeny and Basal Metabolic Rate in Birds
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) represents the minimum maintenance energy requirement of an endotherm and has far-reaching consequences for interactions between animals and their environments. Avian BMR exhibits considerable variation that is independent of body mass. Some long-distance migrants have bee...
