Measuring the thermal conditions of aquatic reptiles with temperature dataloggers is a cost-
effective way to study their behavior and habitat use. Temperature dataloggers are a …

Sea turtle rehabilitation clinics and aquaria frequently transport stranded sea turtles long
distances out of water, eg for release at sites with appropriate water temperatures …

While in hypertonic environment diamondback terrapins (Malaclemys centrata) slowly lose
water by osmosis through the integument and as urine through the kidney. Small amounts of …

Although the first reptiles were apparently adapted to live on land (Carroll, 1969), multiple
lines of reptiles have reinvaded the freshwater habitats of their amphibian relatives. The …

Interspecific differences in water, sodium, and potassium concentrations of entire freshwater
turtles are related to the relative size of the shell. Species with proportionately smaller shells …

Aerial exposure and acute thermal stress have been shown to elicit profound physiological
disruptions in obligate water-breathing teleosts. However, no study has investigated these …

Leatherback turtles in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean have a broad geographic range that
extends from nesting beaches near the equator to seasonal foraging grounds as far north as …

The relationship between fish mass and drinking rate in two species of flatfish, dab and
plaice, weighing between 1 and 150 g was investigated. Both plaice and dab showed …

Juvenile gray snapper (Lutjanus griseus) occupy a wide range of estuarine and nearshore
habitats that differ in physico-chemical properties. To quantify the energetic cost of inhabiting …

Marine mesotherms are able to occupy broader thermal niches than ectotherms; however,
this means they must thermoregulate according to diverse thermal conditions across the …
