Survival and physiological responses of hatchling Blanding's turtles (Emydoidea blandingii) to submergence in normoxic and hypoxic water under simulated winter conditions.
Abstract Overwintering habits of hatchling Blanding’s turtles (Emydoidea blandingii) are unknown. To determine whether these turtles are able to survive winter in aquatic habitats, we submerged hatchlings in normoxic (155 ...
Cold-hardiness and evaporative water loss in hatchling turtles.
North American turtles hatch in late summer and spend their first winter either on land or underwater. Adaptations for terrestrial overwintering of hatchlings in northern regions, where winter thermal and hydric regimes ...
Postfreeze reduction of locomotor endurance in the freeze-tolerant wood frog, Rana sylvatica.
Considerable study has focused on the physiological adaptations for freeze tolerance in the wood frog, Rana sylvatica, a northern species that overwinters within the frost zone, but little attention has been paid to the ...
