Optimal sampling interval for characterisation of the circadian rhythm of body temperature in homeothermic animals using periodogram and cosinor analysis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2024.
The circadian rhythm of core body temperature is an indicator of the physiological state of a homeothermic animal and can be used as a biomarker of its fitness to its environment. In this study, we investigate the impact of sampling intervals used to collect body temperature data on cosinor estimates of the circadian rhythm, and discuss the optimal ...
