Abstract
The acutely determined R-T curve shows some regulation between -1.8[degree] and 6[degree]C. Metabolic compensation was evident. The regression coefficients of double-log plots of rate: weight and weight-specific rate:weight were temperature-dependent. The correlation coefficients between size and rates of consumption were highly significant and varied significantly with temperature. Q10 varied with size.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
