Physiological characteristics of Arctic tern Sterna paradisaea chicks in relation to egg volume / Jan Eivind Østnes, Chris Jensen, Joachim Ostheim, Claus Bech.
Title: | Physiological characteristics of Arctic tern Sterna paradisaea chicks in relation to egg volume / Jan Eivind Østnes, Chris Jensen, Joachim Ostheim, Claus Bech. |
Author(s): | Østnes, Jan Eivind. Jensen, Chris. Ostheim, Joachim. Bech, Claus. |
Date: | 1997. |
In: | Polar Research. (1997.), Vol. 16(1) (1997) |
Abstract: | Effect of egg volume on body mass, body composition and growth rate was studied at Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard. Hatchlings from larger eggs emerge with more yolk sac reserves, but embryos in small eggs seem to use yolk more, ending with more developed leg musculature. |
Notes: | Polar Research. Vol. 16(1) :1-8 (1997). |
Keywords: | 591.134 -- Animal growth. 598.422.2 -- Podicipiformes: Sterna paradisaea. H5 -- Zoology: birds. (*3) -- Arctic regions. (*32) -- Svalbard. |
