Circadian rhythmicity of body temperature and metabolism
R Refinetti - Temperature, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
This article reviews the literature on the circadian rhythms of body temperature and whole-
organism metabolism. The two rhythms are first described separately, each description …

In search of a temporal niche: environmental factors
Time as an ecological niche variable or “temporal niche” can be defined in the context of the
most prominent environmental cycles, including the tidal cycle, the lunar day and month, the …

Evolutionary constraint and innovation across hundreds of placental mammals
Zoonomia is the largest comparative genomics resource for mammals produced to date. By
aligning genomes for 240 species, we identify bases that, when mutated, are likely to affect …

Distinct feedback actions of behavioural arousal to the master circadian clock in nocturnal and diurnal mammals
The master clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus provides a
temporal pattern of sleep and wake that-like many other behavioural and physiological …

Temporal niche switching in Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx): seasonal plasticity of 24 h activity patterns in a large desert mammal
The Arabian oryx, a moderately large mammal that inhabits a harsh desert environment, has
been shown to exhibit seasonal variations in activity and inactivity patterns. Here we …

Effects of temperature on circadian clock and chronotype: an experimental study on a passerine bird
Daily schedules of many organisms, including birds, are thought to affect fitness. Timing in
birds is based on circadian clocks that have a heritable period length, but fitness …
