Climate dependent heating efficiency in the common lizard

Climate dependent heating efficiency in the common lizard

Abstract Regulation of body temperature is crucial for optimizing physiological performance in ectotherms but imposes constraints in time and energy. Time and energy spent thermoregulating can be reduced through behavioral (e.g., basking adjustments) or biophysical (e.g., heating rate physiology) me...
