Circannual rhythms of food consumption, body mass, and metabolism in yellow-bellied marmots

Authors: Ward, J. M.; Armitage, K. B.
Year: 1981
Journal: Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, Vol. 69A, pp. 621-626
Publisher: UNKNOWN

Keywords: ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY, MAMMALOGY, MARMOT, RMBL

Abstract

The circannual cycle of MR is suggested as the driving force underlying the cycles of food consumption and Bm in marmots, which corresponds well with observed differences in above-ground activity between the two populations.
