Validating accelerometry-derived proxies of energy expenditure using the doubly labelled water method in the smallest penguin species
Understanding energy use is central to understanding an animal's physiological and behavioural ecology. However, directly measuring energy expenditure in free-ranging animals is inherently difficult. The doubly labelled water (DLW) method is widely used to investigate energy expenditure in a ra...
