DOI: 10.1007/s00227-016-3066-9
Abstract: To help meet the high energy demands of raising the young, some seabirds alternate between short, frequent foraging trips to maximize food delivery to the young, and infrequent, long foraging trips that serve towards self-maintenance.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icad042
Abstract: Reproduction and self-maintenance are energetically costly activities involved in classic life history trade-offs. However, few studies have measured the responses of wild organisms to simultaneous changes in reproductive and self-maintenance costs, which may have interactive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/00187208221076185
Abstract: OBJECTIVE We developed a conceptual framework of Team Self-Maintenance (TSM) within long-duration space exploration (LDSE), which we define as the process of monitoring, adjusting, and maintaining the psychological well-being of a team in the absence… read more here.
