DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.23432
Abstract: Elevated resting metabolic rates (RMR, kcal/day) are a well‐established mechanism for maintaining core body temperature among cold climate populations. A high degree of interindividual variation has recently been noted among circumpolar populations. To further examine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8853
Abstract: Abstract Acute exposure to warming temperatures increases minimum energetic requirements in ectotherms. However, over and within multiple generations, increased temperatures may cause plastic and evolved changes that modify the temperature sensitivity of energy demand and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jinsphys.2017.10.002
Abstract: The rate at which organisms metabolize resources and consume oxygen is tightly linked to body mass. Typically, there is a sub-linear allometric relationship between metabolic rates and body mass (mass-scaling exponent b read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jinsphys.2020.104155
Abstract: A postprandial increase in metabolic rate is typical in all studied animal groups. The phenomenon, termed specific dynamic action (SDA), is understudied in terrestrial arthropods, and arachnids in particular. To the best of our knowledge,… read more here.
