Abstract
Scientists studying the energy expenditure of air-breathing divers are interested in developing a more tractable technique to support their endeavour. Accelerometers instrumented to animals can return a tangible measure of those animals’ activity levels, which in some situations correlates with their metabolic rate. However, I argue that reported evidence for this correlation in semi-aquatic animals while diving is not always as strong as it...
