The moult represents an important seasonal change in the physiology of phocid seals. However, physiological measurements are challenging due to the impracticalities of instrumenting moulting animals. The aim of this study was (i) to assess the feasibility of a long-term deployment of fully implantable loggers to measure heart rate (HR) and sub-blubber temperature (T b ) in harbour seals ( Phoca vitulina ) and (ii) to compare H...
Tropicalization of the Temperate Zone: Spatiotemporal Variability of Winter Warming and Declining Freeze Days Across the United StatesNARA Subscribed
We investigate changes in cool‐season and winter daily minimum (T min ) and maximum (T max ) temperatures, and the occurrence of freeze days, from 1952 to 2024 across the conterminous United States (CONUS). Emphasis is placed on the tropical‐temperate transition zone (TTTz) in the southeastern CONUS. During winter, ~70% of the land area exhibited T min warming rates exceeding those of T max . The countywide coldest T min becam...
