Cellular Metabolic Rate Is Influenced by Life-History Traits in Tropical and Temperate Birds

In general, tropical birds have a “slow pace of life,” lower rates of whole-animal metabolism and higher survival rates, than temperate species. A fundamental challenge facing physiological ecologists is the understanding of how variation in life-history at the whole-organism level might be linked t...
