The time-energy budget of a moose

Theoretical Population Biology, 1978
Abstract As the first step in developing an optimal foraging model for moose (Belovsky 1978), a time-energy budget for a moose was developed. For the summer period (late May through early September) at Isle Royale National Park, Michigan, we made various behavioral observations on feeding moose and inventoried their food resources.

Energy and Energy Budgets

1980
Organisms are comprised of cells, which are highly organized groupings of complex molecules. To maintain the degree of organization making up life, energy of the right magnitude is necessary. One learns from thermodynamics that the natural trend of the universe is to go toward increased entropy, i.e., from a degree of order toward more disorder.

Balancing insect energy budgets

Oecologia, 1985
Energy budgets are based upon the equation C=P P + R + FU, where C = Consumption, P = Production, R = Respiration, and FU= Rejecta (comprising F, egesta, and U, excreta). In studies of insect energetics where all four quantities have been measured, the completed budget rarely balances.

Budgeting of Energy

1996
Energy taken in as food is apportioned in various ways. Some builds new tissue as growth or is deposited in energy storage products such as fat or glycogen. Some is used in production of young. Much of it Fuels metabolism and is expended in bodily maintenance. Finally, what is not assimilated is lost in the faeces.

Energy budgets

1999
Abstract Previous chapters have told us how much energy is needed for particular functions such as growth, maintaining body temperature, or running at some particular speed. Now we ask how much energy animals use in their everyday lives, and how it is divided between functions.We have seen how animals ‘ rates of energy consumption ...

Energy Budgets of Plants

1980
All parts of plants have temperatures determined by their environmental conditions. The energy status of a plant or a plant leaf is manifested by its temperature. The leaves and stems of plants have small masses and are generally of low heat capacity.

Energy Budget of Shredders

2020
Energy budgets provide information on energy allocation and physiological responses of consumers to optimize their energy gain. This optimization can be achieved by adjusting rates of food ingestion, assimilation, respiration or growth. This chapter describes a method to calculate energy budgets of shredders feeding on leaf litter.
