Radio-biotelemetry studies of circadian body temperature rhythms and activity levels [of the] zebra finch (Peophilia guttata)
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThe object of this study was to determine the normal thermoregulatory patterns of zebra finches (Poephilia guttat) in as near a normal physiological and behavioral state as possible. Surface body temperature and level of activity were the two primary channels of information. Radiobioelemetry allowed the reduction of external disturbance during long periods of continuous recording.
