Applicability of the doubly labelled water method to the rhinoceros auklet, Cerorhinca monocerata

The doubly labelled water (DLW) method is an isotope-based technique that is used to measure the metabolic rates of free-living animals. We validated the DLW method for measuring metabolic rates in five rhinoceros auklets (Cerorhinca monocerata) compared with simultaneous measurements using the resp...
